What is a key characteristic of equivalent fractions?

• They represent different values.

• They are always improper fractions.

• They have the same numerators and denominators.

• They look different but represent the same value.

Why are equivalent fractions useful in solving equations?

• They make equations more complex.

• They are only useful in multiplication.

• They eliminate the need for numerators.

• They allow for easier addition and subtraction with common denominators.

How can equivalent fractions be useful in baking?

• They help in measuring ingredients when the exact measuring cup is unavailable.

• They make recipes more complicated.

• They change the taste of the recipe.

• They are not useful in baking.

What is one method to find equivalent fractions using models?

• By using a different model entirely.
