because all your doing is making it bigger like if you eat 3/4 of a Pizza is like saying you ate 12/16. because if its divided in 4 pieces, you eat 3 of that. you would still get the same portion if you just made more pieces but ate the same amount.

What do you do to the numerator when you are renaming fraction?

The same thing that you do to the denominator.


What is the property of multiplication do we use to rename fractions?

The property of multiplication used to rename fractions is the "Multiplicative Identity Property." This property states that multiplying a number by one does not change its value. When renaming fractions, we typically multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same non-zero integer, effectively creating an equivalent fraction while retaining the same overall value.


How are equivalent fractions used in renaming when subtracting?

When subtracting one fraction to another, one or both fractions are renamed so that they have the same denominators. Then the result of the subtraction is the equal to the subtraction of the numerators divided by the common denominator.


Can you use one of the denominators of 56 and 1130 when renaming these fractions using a common denominator why is this true?

You can use 30 because 6 is a factor of 30. You can use 30 because 30 is a multiple of 6.


How do you find the numerator in renaming a whole number as a mixed number?

If the mixed number is x y/z then the numerator is (x*z + y)


What do you do if the bottom numbers are different in fractions?

Those "bottom" numbers are called denominators. It just depends what kind of operation (add, subtract, multiply, divide) you are asked to perform with these fractions. In this case, I am going to assume that you are asked to add or subtract fractions with different denominators (bottom numbers). (In any other case, such as multiplying or dividing, the denominators need not be the same.) If this is the case, then you are going to have to find a common denominator. This can be done by finding the LCM (least common multiple) of both denominators. Example: (1/3) + (1/2) = ? Since the denominators (3 and 2) are different, you will need to find the LCM. In this case, the LCM of 3 and 2 is 6. Now, in order to make the denominators the same, you will need to multiply the 3 by 2 and the 2 by 3 to get a common denominator of 6. Now, remember that what you are doing is simply "renaming" the fraction. So, what you do to the denominator (bottom number), you must also do to the numerator (top number). You can think of it as multiplying both fractions by a fancy form of 1...which as you should know, anything times 1 is just that same number. So, multiply the first fraction by 2/2 and the second fraction by 3/3) Now you get {(1/3)*(2/2)} + {(1/2)*(3/3)} = (2/6) + (3/6) = (5/6) Hope this helps! :)


How do renaming fractions help you find distances between fractions?

it helps you find the distance between fractions because the new name should be an equivalent fraction. Therefore it should be able to be divided\multiplied by 2 to make the original number.


Is renaming an adverb?

No - it is the present participle form of rename. I am renaming my dog. I now call him Jimbo.

When adding two mixed numbers is it always necessary to rename the fractional sum explain?

Oh, dude, renaming the fractional sum when adding mixed numbers is like wearing a hat indoors - it's not necessary, but it might make things a bit fancier. Technically, you can add mixed numbers without renaming the sum, but it can make the math simpler and easier to understand. So, like, you do you - rename or not, it's all good.
