Yes. For example, how many more 2 does it take to make 4 become 10? For this, see the values as money. It will become: how many 2 dollar notes does it take to make 4 dollars become 10 dollars. The workings is (10-4)/2=3. What you do is find the difference between the 2 values (subtraction) and divide it by the the 2.

Why do you have to multiply or divide both the numerater and denominator of a fraction to find an equivalent fraction?

Whatever you multiply or divide the numerator by, you must do the same to the denominator. If you multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by different numbers, you change the value of the fraction and turn it into a different number. After that, nothing is "equivalent" any more ... you're working with a changed number.

How do you find the answer to how many ounces in a gallon multiply add subtract or divide?

first of all there are many free online conversions to figure this question out. Secondly, the answer depends on how you want to approach the question and what information you already have. I'll assume you know how many ounces in a cup, cups in a pint, pints in a quart and quarts in a gallon. if you knew how many ounces in a cup and how many cups in a gallon you could skip steps. you can multiply how many ounces in a cup by how many cups in a pint, then multiply that answer by how many pints in a quart, then multiply that answer by how many quarts in a gallon. conversely you could divide a gallon by the number of quarts in a gallon, divide that answer by the number of pints in a quart, divide that answer by the number of cups in a pint and divide that answer by the number of ounces in a cup. This will give you a fraction. The recipricol of that fraction is the number of ounces in a gallon. adding and subtracting would be nothing more than a convoluted way of explaining the multiplication or division of the problem.
