Problem 229. Explain why 6/8 equivalent to 9/12 using the context of a 12-pack of soda Problem 230. Explain why 6/8 is equivalent to 9/12 using the context of a 4-pack of yogurt.

Step-by-step explanation:

229: 6/8= 3/4 soda

9/12= 3/4 soda

for every 3 sodas drunk, 1 still remain

230: for every 3 yogurt eaten, 1 remain

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
