Question

Check whether the given fractions are equivalent:

$\frac{3}{10},\frac{12}{50}$

Answer 1

Given $\frac{3}{10},\frac{12}{50}$

Consider $\frac{12}{50}$

Divide by $2$

$\frac{{\displaystyle \frac{12}{2}}}{{\displaystyle \frac{50}{2}}}=\frac{6}{25}$

But $\frac{12}{50}$ is not equivalent to $\frac{3}{10}$

Hence, $\frac{3}{10},\frac{12}{50}$are not equivalent.
