Finding Equivalent Fractions Using Circle Models

The video tutorial teaches how to find equivalent fractions using circle models. It explains that equivalent fractions occupy the same part of a whole and emphasizes the importance of using the same size models for comparison. Through a pizza shop analogy, the video demonstrates how fractions like 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, while 3/6 and 3/4 are not. It further illustrates that 1/3 is equivalent to 2/6 using visual models. The lesson concludes by reinforcing the concept of equivalent fractions through practical examples.

What is the key requirement when comparing fractions using circle models?

• The circles must be different sizes.

• The circles must be drawn by hand.

• The circles must be colorful.

• The circles must be the same size.
