Evaluate 6/8=(23)/(24)

$\frac{6}{8} = \frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}$

Step 1

Cancel the common factor of $6$ and $8$ .

Factor $2$ out of $6$ .

$\frac{2 (3)}{8} = \frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $8$ .

$\frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4} = \frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4} = \frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}$

Step 2

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{2 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{4}$

Evaluate 6/8=(2*3)/(2*4)
