In Missy's sport-card collection, 3/4 of the cards are baseball cards. In frank's collection, 8/12 are baseball cards. Frank says they have the same fraction of baseball cards. Is he correct?



Answer :

No he is incorrect because Missy's collection has more.
to solve this, you need to simplify 8/12
in order to simplify a fraction, you divide both the top and bottom by the same number.
 8 and 12 are both divisible by 4, so you get
2/3

2/3 and 3/4 are not the same fraction, so no. Frank is not correct.
