Equivalent Fractions?

Question

I have two questions.
If you got a fraction such as 5/6, how do you find a fraction that is equivalent to 5/6?

And my other question is how do you change a fraction to a decimal such as 13/20?
please use the fractions above as an example
thanks

Answer 1

Multiply the numerator and denominator times 2

2 x 5 = 10

2 = 6 = 12

5/6 is equivaalent to 10/12

Convert the fraction 13/20 to decimal

divide 13 by 20

13/20 = 0.65. . . <= . .this is the decimal

- - - - - - - - - -s-

Answer 2

Okay, to create an equivalent fraction, just multiply the top and bottom numbers by the same number. For instance, if the fraction is 5/6, you can make an equivalent one by multiply both top and bottom by two. This would equal 10/12, multiply that by the same number and more will come. You can also multiply 5/6 by 100 and get 500/600.

To change a fraction into a decimal, simply divide the numerator (top) by the denominator (bottom). So 13/20 in fraction form is the answer to 13 divided by 20. So, the answer is 0.65.

Answer 3

10/12, 15/18 - these fractions can all be broken down and are equivalent to 5/6.

Divide 20 into 13, because 20 is too big to be divided into 13 you divide it into 130. Your answer is . (decimal point) and then the number. Your answer would be .65

Answer 4

To find equivalent fractions, multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same number. Usually multiplication is easiest.
5/6*2/2=10/12
5x2/6x2=10/12

Fractions are division problems. So 13/20 is the same as 13 divided by 20. Using long division you would get .65.

Answer 5

a fraction equivilant to 5/6 would be something like 10/12 or 20/24 [just multiply the top & bottom by the same number]

&& to change 13/20 into a decimal just divid 13 by 20 on a calculador or on paper && that's the decimal
