Question. 68

\(\tfrac{12}{75} \, ... \, \tfrac{32}{200}\)

Answer:

\(\tfrac{12}{75} \, = \, \tfrac{32}{200}\)

Detailed Answer with Explanation:

Goal: Check if the two fractions are equal.

Method 1: Simplify both fractions

\(\dfrac{12}{75}\) → divide top and bottom by \(3\)

Top: \(12 \div 3 = 4\)

Bottom: \(75 \div 3 = 25\)

So, \(\dfrac{12}{75} = \dfrac{4}{25}\)

\(\dfrac{32}{200}\) → divide top and bottom by \(8\)

Top: \(32 \div 8 = 4\)

Bottom: \(200 \div 8 = 25\)

So, \(\dfrac{32}{200} = \dfrac{4}{25}\)

Both became \(\dfrac{4}{25}\), so they are equal.

Method 2: (Quick check with decimals)

\(\dfrac{4}{25} = 0.16\)

So, \(\dfrac{12}{75} = 0.16\) and \(\dfrac{32}{200} = 0.16\).

Conclusion: \(\dfrac{12}{75} \, \underline{=} \, \dfrac{32}{200}\)
