Question
Tell whether each pair of fractions are equivalent by simplifying each fraction.$$\frac{2}{14} \text { and } \frac{6}{36}$$
Step 1
The greatest common divisor of 2 and 14 is 2. So, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2. This gives us $\frac{2}{14} = \frac{2 \div 2}{14 \div 2} = \frac{1}{7}$. Show more…
