Answer 1

80/100

Explanation:

We are to find an equivalent fraction to 8/10. But in this case the denominator needs to be 100

$\begin{gathered} \text{Given denominator = 10} \\ \text{new denominator = 100} \\ \frac{\text{new denominator }}{\text{given denominator }}=\frac{100}{10}=\text{ 10} \end{gathered}$

This means the multiplying number to the given denominator is 10.

For equivalent fraction, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number

So we would multiply the given numerator too by the multiplying number 10

$\begin{gathered} \text{Given numerator = 8} \\ \text{New numerator = 8}\times10\text{ = 80} \end{gathered}$

The equivalent fraction to 8/10 becomes:

$\begin{gathered} Thefraction=\frac{\text{new numerator}}{\text{new denominator}} \\ Thefraction=\frac{80}{100} \end{gathered}$
