Answer

$ \frac{5}{6}=\frac{40}{48}$

Work Step by Step

$ \frac{5}{6}= \frac{}{48}$ Convert the denominator of the first fraction to match the indicated denominator. The 6 must be converted to a 48. 48÷6=8 The numerator and denominator of the first fraction must therefore be multiplied by 8. So, $ \frac{5}{6}= \frac{5\times8}{6\times8}= \frac{40}{48}$
