Navigating Equivalent Fractions on a Number Line

This video tutorial explains the concept of equivalent fractions, demonstrating how different fractions can represent the same number. It uses number lines to visually show how fractions like one-half and two-fourths, or four-thirds and eight-sixths, are equivalent. The lesson guides viewers through constructing equivalent fractions by dividing number lines into equal parts and finding corresponding points. By the end, viewers will understand how to identify and create equivalent fractions using visual aids.
