jackie is making a beaded bracelet. The bracelet will have no more than 12 beads. 1/3 of the beads on the bracelet will be green. What.other fractions could represent the part of the beads on the bracelet that will be green?

Respuesta :

Since there could be no more than 12 the multiples of 1/3 untill a denominator of 12 are 2/6 3/9 and 4/12

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex],  [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex],  [tex]\frac{3}{9}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{4}{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

The fraction of the bracelet having green beads = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].

Total number of beads must be no more than 12.

Thus, the maximum number of green beads can be [tex]\frac{1}{3}\times 12[/tex] =  [tex]\frac{12}{3}[/tex] = 4

So, the fractions of bracelet representing green beads will be,

[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex],  [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex],  [tex]\frac{3}{9}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{4}{12}[/tex]
