The correct Answer is:
To find three equivalent fractions for \( \frac{21}{84} \), we will simplify the fraction and then find equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing by the same number. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Start with the given fraction:** \[ \frac{21}{84} \] 2. **Simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD):** - The GCD of 21 and 84 is 21. - Divide both the numerator and the denominator by their GCD: \[ \frac{21 \div 21}{84 \div 21} = \frac{1}{4} \] 3. **Find equivalent fractions by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by different numbers:** - **First Equivalent Fraction:** - Multiply by 2: \[ \frac{1 \times 2}{4 \times 2} = \frac{2}{8} \] - **Second Equivalent Fraction:** - Multiply by 3: \[ \frac{1 \times 3}{4 \times 3} = \frac{3}{12} \] - **Third Equivalent Fraction:** - Multiply by 7: \[ \frac{1 \times 7}{4 \times 7} = \frac{7}{28} \] 4. **Final Result:** The three equivalent fractions for \( \frac{21}{84} \) are: \[ \frac{1}{4}, \frac{2}{8}, \frac{3}{12}, \frac{7}{28} \]
