Question

draw an area model or use fraction strips to solve the problem.
\\(\frac{3}{4} = \frac{9}{?}\\)
\\(\frac{3}{4} = \frac{9}{\square}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze fraction equivalence

We know that to find the missing denominator, we can use the concept of equivalent fractions. If \(\frac{3}{4}=\frac{9}{?}\), we see that the numerator \(3\) is multiplied by \(3\) to get \(9\) (since \(3\times3 = 9\)).

Step2: Apply to denominator

For equivalent fractions, we must multiply the denominator by the same number. So we multiply the denominator \(4\) by \(3\). That is \(4\times3=12\).

Answer:

\(12\)
