Given Fractions:
Since the denominators are not common (not the same), we need to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD), which is equivalent to the Least Common Multiple of 2 and 8:
LCD = LCM(2, 8) = 8
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (8):
4 is equal to 4 (4 = 4)
As a result,
1/2
and 4/8
Since the denominators are not common (not the same), we need to find the Least Common Denominator (LCD), which is equivalent to the Least Common Multiple of 2 and 8:
LCD = LCM(2, 8) = 8
Express the given fractions as equivalent fractions with respect to the LCD (8):
1/2
= 4/8
and 4/8
= 4/8
Since the equivalent fractions have common denominators, we can compare the numerators:4 is equal to 4 (4 = 4)
As a result,
4/8
is equal to 4/8
Therefore, 1/2
is equal to 4/8
, 1/2
= 4/8
