Answer:
[tex]\frac{12}{24}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Ben works in his dads bakery packing bagels. Each package can have no more than 16 bagels. 3/4 of the bagels in each package is plain.
As 3/4 of bagels in each package is plain, so let us find 3/4 of 16 bagels.
[tex]\text{Number of plain bagels in a package of 16}=\frac{3}{4}\times 16[/tex]
[tex]\text{Number of plain bagels in a package of 16}=3\times 4[/tex]
[tex]\text{Number of plain bagels in a package of 16}=12[/tex]
So 12 bagels out of 16 bagels are plain. We can represent the other fraction that represents the same part of the bagels in each package that will be plain as:
[tex]\frac{12}{24}[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]\frac{12}{24}[/tex] is equivalent fraction that represents the same part of the bagels in each package that will be plain.
