Answer Key:
2. Tree diagram
a. 24: composite number
b. 1/2 and 1/6: The LCD of 2 and 6 is 6. Therefore, the equivalent fractions are 3/6 and 1/6.
c. 3/4 and 7/8: The LCD of 4 and 8 is 8. So, the equivalent fractions are 6/8 and 7/8.
d. 4/5 and 5/6: The LCD of 5 and 6 is 30. Therefore, the equivalent fractions are 24/30 and 25/30.
e. 2/3 and 7/10: The LCD of 3 and 10 is 30. So, the equivalent fractions are 20/30 and 21/30.
b. 10/15: The GCF of 10 and 15 is 5. By dividing both terms by 5, the fraction simplifies to
2/3.
c. 9/24: The GCF of 9 and 24 is 3. By dividing both terms by 3, the fraction simplifies to 3/8.
d. 3/39: The GCF of 3 and 39 is 3. By dividing both terms by 3, the fraction simplifies to 1/13.
e. 5/30: The GCF of 5 and 30 is 5. By dividing both terms by 5, the fraction simplifies to 1/6.
f. 14/49: The GCF of 14 and 49 is 7. By dividing both terms by 7, the fraction simplifies to
2/7.
g. 36/144: The GCF of 36 and 144 is 36. By dividing both terms by 36, the fraction simplifies
to 1/4.
h. 4/72: The GCF of 4 and 72 is 4. By dividing both terms by 4, the fraction simplifies to 1/18.
