Question

which two fractions are equivalent to whole numbers? 1/2. 2/6. 4/8. 5/5. 7/8. 10/1.

Answer 1

In order to find the fractions that are equivalent to whole numbers, we can convert each fraction to its decimal form.

So we have that:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}=0.5 \\ \\ \frac{2}{6}=0.333\ldots \\ \\ \frac{4}{8}=0.5 \\ \\ \frac{5}{5}=1 \\ \\ \frac{7}{8}=0.875 \\ \\ \frac{10}{1}=10 \end{gathered}$

So the fractions that are equivalent to whole numbers are 5/5 and 10/1.
