[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To make the fractions equivalent, we need to find the missing number that, when multiplied by the denominator of 7/12 (which is 12), will give us the denominator of 48.

The missing number can be found by dividing the new denominator (48) by the original denominator (12):
48 ÷ 12 = 4

Therefore, the missing number is 4.

To find the numerator, we can multiply the missing number (4) by the numerator of the original fraction (7):
4 × 7 = 28

So, 7/12 is equivalent to 28/48.
