Question
Find the fraction equivalent of $\frac{35}{42}$, having:Numerator 30
✓
Answer
Firstly, we will reduce $\frac{35}{42}$ into the lowest term.
Now, we will divide both the numerator & denominator by the HCFs of 35 & 42.
$\Rightarrow\frac{35\div7}{42\div7}=\frac{5}{6}$
$\frac{5}{6}=\frac{30}{}$
Consider the numerator $= 30$
As 5 × 6 = 30, we will multiply both the numerator & denominator by 6.
$\Rightarrow\frac{5\ \times\ 6}{6\ \times\ 6}=\frac{30}{36}$
