Question 6(c) :
Check whether the given fraction are equivalent:
713,511
Equivalent fractions are fractions which represent the same part of the whole.
To find an equivalent fraction of a given fraction, we may multiply or divide both the numerator and the denominator of the given fraction by the same number.
The given fractions are 713, 511.
A fraction is said to be in the simplest (or lowest) form if its numerator and denominator have no common factor except 1.
Now, both 713 and 511 are in its simplest form.
(∵ The numerator and denominator of both the fractions have no common factor except 1)
Therefore, 713 and 511 are not equivalent fractions.
(∵ If two fractions are not equal in their simplest from then they are not equivalent)
