Question

Which fraction is not equivalent to $\frac{1}{4}$?

• A. $\frac{4}{16}$
• B. $\frac{6}{24}$
• C. $\frac{4}{8}$
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{4}{8}$

1)
$\frac{4}{16}=\frac{1\times 4}{4\times 4}=\frac{1}{4}$
Therefore, the equivalent fraction of $\frac{4}{16}$ is $\frac{1}{4}.$

2)
$\frac{6}{24}=\frac{1\times 6}{4\times 6}=\frac{1}{4}$
Therefore, the equivalent fraction of $\frac{6}{24}$ is $\frac{1}{4}.$

3)
$\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1\times 4}{2\times 4}=\frac{1}{2}$
The equivalent fraction of $\frac{4}{8}$ is $\frac{1}{2}$ . Therefore $\frac{4}{8}$ does not equals to $\frac{1}{4}$

$\therefore$ Option C is the correct answer.
