answer attempt 1 out of 2
\\(\frac{4}{11} = \frac{\square}{\square}\\) \\(\frac{1}{2} = \frac{\square}{\square}\\) submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Find the least common denominator (LCD) of 11 and 2. Since 11 and 2 are coprime, their LCD is \( 11\times2 = 22 \).

Step2: Rewrite \( \frac{4}{11} \) with denominator 22. Multiply numerator and denominator by 2: \( \frac{4\times2}{11\times2}=\frac{8}{22} \).

Step3: Rewrite \( \frac{1}{2} \) with denominator 22. Multiply numerator and denominator by 11: \( \frac{1\times11}{2\times11}=\frac{11}{22} \).

Answer:

\( \frac{4}{11} = \frac{8}{22} \), \( \frac{1}{2} = \frac{11}{22} \)
