We have two fractions, 5/8 and 5/4, and we want to rewrite them so that they have a common denominator (and whole number numerators).

choose two answers

a.) 20
b.) 16
c.) 8
d.) 4

Options b) and c) are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: fractions are

To find: the common denominator

Solution:

Multiply both numerator and denominator of by 2

So, have same denominator 8.

Now multiply numerator and denominator of by 2,

Now multiply numerator and denominator of by 4,

So, have same denominator 16.

Hence, options b) and c) are correct
