Answer:
[tex] \dfrac{21}{24} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If you take a fraction, and you multiply or divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number, you get an equivalent fraction.
You have the fraction 7/8.
You are asked to come up with an equivalent fraction with denominator 24.
You must multiply the numerator and denominator of 7/8 by the same number, so that the denominator becomes 24.
What do you multiply 8 by to get 24?
24/8 = 3
If you multiply 8 by 3, you get 24.
Then you must also multiply the numerator by 3.
[tex] \dfrac{7}{8} = \dfrac{7 \times 3}{8 \times 3} = \dfrac{21}{24} [/tex]
