How do I rewrite a fraction with a different denominator?

I need to rewrite 6/15 as a fraction with a denominator of 20. So, my problem is:

6/15 == ?/20

Please show me the steps so I can perform this operation on any proper fraction! Thanks.

Find out what you have to do to get from 15 to 20. You multiplied 15 by 1 and 1/3. Do the same for the numerator. So multiply 6 by 1 and 1/3 to get 8. The answer is 8/20.
Hope this helps:)
