Identifying Fractions

Let us go on With the lesson.

​interpreting and generating equivalent fractions

One example is 2/4 greater, less, or equal to 1/2. The answer is that it is equal to because if you find the common denominator (which is four) you will have to multiply the 1 and 2 in 1/2 and that gives you 2/4 or an equivalent fraction.

Examples

When you want to find equivalent fractions, you must first try and find the common denominator in both fractions. Then you must find out if the fractions have the same value.

Steps to follow

Generating equivalent fractions

Multiple Choice

What is 3/4 equal to

• 2/8

• 9/10

• 6/8

• 8/6

When you turn fractions into decimals, you have to know which fractions are equivalent to decimals. Two examples are 1. 2/4 = 0.50 2. 3/4 = 0.75.

We will now do another question.
