Step 1Answer(14):Suppose,&amp;nbsp;ab&amp;nbsp;is any fraction, then the equivalent fraction of&amp;nbsp;ab&amp;nbsp;is&amp;nbsp;a×nb×n, where&amp;nbsp;n=1,2,3…Since given that Kareem lives&amp;nbsp;410&amp;nbsp;of a miles from the mall.So, to find the equivalent fractions of&amp;nbsp;410&amp;nbsp;(distance between Kareem house and mall), multiply it&#039;s by 2 in numerator and denominator and also multiply 3 in numerator and denominator of&amp;nbsp;410.That is,4×210×2=820And,&amp;nbsp;4×310×3=1230Therefore, two necessary equivalent fractions that demonstrate the distance in miles between Kareem&#039;s home and the mall are&amp;nbsp;820&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;1230Step 2Answer(3):Given that, in the last month, he sold one large screen television for $1,699.So, the price of one large screen television is $1,699.Then, the price of eight large-screen television is&amp;nbsp;$1,699×8=$13,592Therefore, the money for sold 8 large-screen television is $13,592
