Question

Write a rational number equal to $\frac{3}{5}$ with 15 as the numerator.

• A.
  $\frac{15}{5}$
• B.
  $\frac{15}{20}$
• C.
  $\frac{15}{25}$
• D.
  $\frac{15}{30}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$\frac{15}{25}$

To make the numerator as 15, we have to multiply it with 5.

Multiplying both numerator and denominator by 5 gives,

$\frac{3\times 5}{5\times 5}=\frac{15}{25}$
