Question

fill in the blank to make the number sentence true. 14×□=14. options: \\(\frac{5}{3}\\), \\(\frac{2}{3}\\), \\(\frac{3}{3}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the multiplicative identity property

The multiplicative identity property states that any number multiplied by 1 gives the number itself. So we need to find which of the given fractions is equal to 1.

Step2: Check each fraction

• For $\frac{5}{3}$: $\frac{5}{3}

eq1$ (since $5
eq3$)

• For $\frac{2}{3}$: $\frac{2}{3}

eq1$ (since $2
eq3$)

• For $\frac{3}{3}$: $\frac{3}{3} = 1$ (since the numerator and denominator are equal)

So when we multiply 14 by $\frac{3}{3}$ (which is 1), we get 14.

Answer:

$\frac{3}{3}$
