Answer:
The question is not clearly stated, below is a possible match of the clearly and completely stated question:
Tony is writing a fraction equivalent to 2/7 using the formula 2*m/7*n. Which statement about m and n must be true so that tony fraction has the same value as 2/7
A. M/n has to be greater than 1
B. M/n has to equal 7
C. M/n has to be greater than 2
D. M/n has to equal 1
Answer:
m/n has to equal 1 (D)
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]original\ fraction = \frac{2}{7} \\equivalent\ fraaction = \frac{2\ \times\ m}{7\ \times\ n} \\equivalent\ fraction\ = \frac{2}{7} \times\ \frac{m}{n} \\[/tex]
since the target for the equaivalent fraction is the same as the equivalent fraction ([tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex]), the value of [tex]\frac{m}{n}[/tex] must be equal to 1, so that the multiplication will be:
[tex]\frac{2}{7} \times 1 = \frac{2}{7}[/tex]
