a power of 10
If you divide a fraction by any common factor of the numerator and denominator you will get an equivalent fraction.
Because that is how equivalent fractions are defined!
Multiply the numerator and denominator by the same whole number.
Multiply the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of the fraction by any non-zero number. You will have an equivalent fraction.Multiply the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of the fraction by any non-zero number. You will have an equivalent fraction.Multiply the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of the fraction by any non-zero number. You will have an equivalent fraction.Multiply the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of the fraction by any non-zero number. You will have an equivalent fraction.

So you have a fraction: A/B, and you want it to have a denominator D, so the new equivalent fraction is C/D. So set them equal: A/B = C/D --> C = A*D/B is the new numerator
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same counting number.
