Question

Find the equivalent fraction of $\frac{1}{3}$.
Subtract the equivalent fraction from the given fraction.

• A. $\frac{2}{3}$, $1$
• B. $\frac{2}{6}$, $0$
• C. $\frac{3}{3}$, $0$
• D. $\frac{3}{6}$, $\frac{1}{3}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{2}{6}$, $0$

Multiplying the numerator and denominator of $\frac{1}{3}$ by 2, we get,
$\frac{1\times 2}{3\times 2}=\frac{2}{6}$

Subtracting the two, we get
$\frac{2}{6}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{6}-\frac{2}{6}=0$

The difference between any two equivalent fractions is always 0.
