You can find a missing denominator if you know something that the fraction is equal to. Then you can find the missing denominator through cross multiplication.
The answer depends on what other information you have.
The answer depends on what other information you have.
To find a missing numerator or denominator in a fraction, you can set up a proportion using the known values. For example, if you have the fraction 2/x = 3/6, you can cross multiply to find the missing numerator: 26 = 3x. Solve for x to find the missing denominator. Alternatively, if you have the fraction y/4 = 5/10, you can cross multiply to find the missing numerator: y10 = 54, and then solve for y to find the missing numerator.
An equivalent fraction is just a multiple of the one that you have (i.e it is the one that you have, scaled up or down). So multiply the fraction that you have until either the numerator or the denominator match the given numerator/denominator of the fraction with the missing number. The number in the corresponding place on the fraction that you multiplied is the missing number.
If you have a missing numerator (top number), divide the new denominator (bottom number) by the original denominator and multiply this by the numerator.If you have a missing denominator, divide the new numerator by the original numerator and multiply this by the denominator.examples:1/2 = ?/6Dividing denominators: 6 ÷ 2 = 3 Multiplying the numerator: 1 x 3 = 3⇒ 1/2 = 3/61/4 = 3/?Dividing numerators: 3 ÷ 1 = 3 Multiplying the denominator: 4 x 3 = 12⇒ 1/4 = 3/126/8 = ?/4Dividing denominators: 4 ÷ 8 = 1/2 Multiplying the numerator: 6 x 1/2 = 3⇒ 6/8 = 3/43/6 = 2/?Dividing numerators: 2 ÷ 3 = 2/3 Multiplying the denominator: 6 x 2/3 = 4⇒ 3/6 = 2/4
Restate question: In working with equivalent fractions, how do you find a missing numerator?(If this is not your question, please resubmit your question with more information.)Example: Find an equivalent fraction for 2/5, with a denominator of 30.Solution: 2/5 = x/30. Since 30 = 5x6, you need to multiply the numerator by 6. 2x6=12.2/5 = 12/30.
Divide the product by the factor[s] you know. The answer is the missing factor.
The answer depends on the numbers that ARE available.
The answer depends on the part of the question that is missing.
6/8=6/8
One of the best methods is cross multiplication, where you take the percent 11% and turn it into a fraction by putting it over 100 (11/100) and setting it equal to the missing value over 50 (x/50) x representing a variable, so 11/100=x/50. Then you take the first numerator and multiply it to the second denominator (11 times 50 or 550) and the first denominator and multiply it to the second numerator (100 times x or 100x) and then you set them equal to each other (550=100x). Then simplify by dividing 100 from both sides canceling out the 100 and diving 550 to make 5.5 (x=5.5) 5.5 is 11 percent of 50.
