17. Use the product rule to see if the fractions are equivalent (=) or (≠).
(−\frac{8}{5}) (\frac{100}{64})
452 = 452
500 ≠ 501
512 ≠ 500
500 = 500
18. Change the mixed number into an improper fraction.
5\frac{1}{3}
24\frac{5}{5}
21\frac{4}{4}
25\frac{4}{4}
23\frac{4}{4}

Answer

  1. To check if the fractions are equivalent, calculate the product of the fractions:

    \((-\frac{8}{5}) \times (\frac{100}{64}) = -\frac{800}{320} = -\frac{5}{2}\)

    Since \(-\frac{5}{2}\) is not equal to 1, the fractions are not equivalent (≠).

  2. Change the mixed number into an improper fraction:

    5\frac{1}{3} = \frac{16}{3}
