Identifying Equivalent Fractions with Models and Number Lines

The video tutorial explains the concept of equivalent fractions using visual models. It begins with an introduction to equivalent fractions using length models, demonstrating how fractions like 1/2 and 2/4 represent the same amount. The tutorial then uses area models to compare fractions 1/4 and 3/8, showing that they are not equivalent. Finally, it uses number lines to compare 2/8 and 1/4, illustrating that they are equivalent. The video emphasizes understanding equivalent fractions through visual representation.
