Question

Identify the number to fill in the following blank:

$\frac{15}{18}=\frac{}{6}$

• A. 5
• B. 6
• C. 3
• D. 4

Answer 1

The correct option is A 5

To satisfy the equality, both the ratios must be equivalent ratios.
We can write,
$\frac{15}{18}=\frac{5\times 3}{6\times 3}=\frac{5}{6}$

Thus, the missing number is 5.
