Another easy 8th grade problem for u guys to help me with aha scale the numerator and the denominator down by a factor of 3 (divide) to write a
fraction equivalent to 18/42

6/14

Step-by-step explanation:

Scaling the numerator and denominator means to multiply or divide both numbers by some number. "Scaling down" means to divide both the numerator and denominator by some value (in this case, 3). So you would have to divide the numerator by 3 and the denominator by 3.

18 / 3 = 6

42 / 3 = 14

So you would get the equivalent fraction 6/14 when you scale down the numerator and denominator by 3.
