Help Prof. Burgers in converting the fraction $\frac{3}{4}$ such that it becomes a like fraction to $\frac{7}{8}$. Choose the correct option.

• B. $\frac{5}{8}$
• C. $\frac{7}{8}$
• D. $\frac{9}{8}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{6}{8}$

To obtain like fractions to $\frac{7}{8}$, we need to convert the denominator to 8 for $\frac{3}{4}$. So, we have to multiply both the numerator and the denominator of$\frac{3}{4}$ with 2.
So, $\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3\times 2}{4\times 2}=\frac{6}{8}$
