need help to simplify this fractional ratio?

Question

can u give work out so i can see how you reach to answers

I dont want to give my fractions as want to work out myself

but have 3 different fractions.. and how do i use the answer after finding the ratio thus gained to divide??

hope this makes sense

so if the fractions are 1/5:2/3:2/15 if i multiply the 5 x 3 = 15 so change to 3/15: 6/15: 2/15 does that mean the ratio is once i've changed 3/15 to 1/3 15:9 if so how do i use the ratio gained to divide 95.00

Answer 1

(1/5) : (2/3) : (2/15)
(3/15) : (10/15) : (2/15)
3 : 10 : 5

Answer 2

You can multiply or divide all sections of the ratio by the same number. For example: 1/5 : 2/3 : 2/15

Multiply each by 15:

3 : 10 : 2

If you want one section to be 1, then just divide all three by 3, 10, or 2.

Note: if you are not familiar with multiplying fractions:

1/5 * 15 = 15/5 = 3
2/3 * 15 = (2*15)/3 = 30/3 = 10
2/15 * 15 = 30/15 = 2 (you can also just cancel 15 top and bottom leaving 2)

Answer 3

1) Find the common denomimator

2) Divide top and bottom by common denominator.

3) Check your work by multiplying back out.

example: 15/30 = (15/15) * (1/2)

Answer 4

No. It doesn't make any sense.

Answer 5

what is the problem????
