What number can replace y in this equation to make the two fractions equivalent? 5/30=1y (1 point)
To make two fractions equivalent, we need the numerator and denominator of the first fraction to be multiplied (or divided) by the same number to get the numerator and denominator of the second fraction.
In this case, we want to find the number that can replace y to make the two fractions equivalent.
The first fraction is 5/30 and the second fraction is 1y.
To make 5/30 and 1y equivalent, we need to multiply the numerator and denominator of 5/30 by the same number to get to 1y.
Since 5 multiplied by 6 is 30, we can multiply the numerator and denominator by 6 to get 5/30 equivalent to 1y.
So, the number that can replace y in this equation to make the two fractions equivalent is 6.
