## How do you write an equivalent fraction?

Summary:

• You can make equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing both top and bottom by the same amount.
• You only multiply or divide, never add or subtract, to get an equivalent fraction.
• Only divide when the top and bottom stay as whole numbers.

## What are the rules of equivalent fractions?

Equivalent Fractions Rule. A rule stating that if the numerator and denominator of a fraction are multiplied by the same nonzero number, the result is a fraction that is equivalent to the original fraction. This rule can be represented as: a//b = (n * a)//(n * b).

## How to do fractions the easy way?

Simplify all of the fractions.

• For example: 1 / 2 is in its simplest form, but 5 / 10 and 10 / 20 can be simplified further.
• 5 / 10 can be divided by 5 to simplify to 1 / 2.
• 10 / 20 can be divided by 10 to simplify to 1 / 2.

## What fractions are equivalent to 1/3?

Answer: The fractions equivalent to 1/3 are 2/6, 3/9, 4/12, etc. Equivalent fractions have the same value in the reduced form.

## How to write equivalent fractions?

Equivalent fractions can be written by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and the denominator by the same number. This is the reason why these fractions get reduced to the same number when they are simplified.

## How to multiply the numerator and the denominator?

Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.

## What are Equivalent Fractions?

Equivalent fractions are fractions with different numbers representing the same part of a whole. They have different numerators and denominators, but their fractional values are the same.

## How to make a fraction equivalent?

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same whole number. As long as you multiply both top and bottom of the fraction by the same number, you won’t change the value of the fraction , and you’ll create an equivalent fraction.

## What is half of a fraction?

For example, think about the fraction 1/2. It means half of something. You can also say that 6/12 is half, and that 50/100 is half. They represent the same part of the whole. These equivalent fractions contain different numbers but they mean the same thing: 1/2 = 6/12 = 50/100

## What are the rules for fractions?

Rules for expressions with fractions: Fractions – use the slash “/” between the numerator and denominator, i.e., for five-hundredths, enter 5/100. If you are using mixed numbers, be sure to leave a single space between the whole and fraction part.

## Do you do multiplication before addition and subtraction?

Be careful, always do multiplication and division before addition and subtraction. Some operators (+ and -) and (* and /) has the same priority and then must evaluate from left to right.

## How to find equivalent fractions?

To find equivalent fractions, you just need to multiply the numerator and denominator of that reduced fraction ( 13) by the same natural number, ie, multiply by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

## What is the equivalent of 2 6?

The fraction 2 6 is equal to 1 3 when reduced to lowest terms. To find equivalent fractions, you just need to multiply the numerator and denominator of that reduced fraction ( 1 3) by the same integer number, ie, multiply by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 … and so on …

## What are Equivalent Fractions?

Equivalent fractions state that two or more than two fractions are said to be equal if both results are the same fraction after simplification. Let us say, a/b and c/d are two fractions, after the simplification of these fractions, both result in equivalent fractions, say e/f, then they are equal to each other.

## Why are fractions the same?

These fractions are actually the same because when we multiply or divide both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, the value of the fraction actually doesn’t change. Therefore, equivalent fractions, when reduced to their simplified value, will all be the same. For example, consider the fraction 1/5.

## What happens when two fractions are given?

If two fractions are given, we can simply find their decimals to check if they are equivalent fractions.

## How to make the denominator equal to 9?
