[tex] \frac{5}{4} = \frac{?}{16} [/tex]

Switch sides:

[tex] \frac{?}{16} = \frac{5}{4} [/tex]

find least common  multiplier of 16, 4

Prime factorization  of 16 = 4²

Prime factorization  of 4 = 2²

LCM = 16

Multiply by LCM

[tex] \frac{?}{16} *16= \frac{5}{4}*16 [/tex]

[tex]? = 20[/tex]

hope this helps!
