L.C. To be able to find equivalent fractions.

 

What do we mean by the term equivalent fraction?
 


1⁄2 = ?⁄10.
How can we use our 2 times table or 10 times table to help us?

What has happened to change the denominator (2 to 10)?

What if we did the same to the numerator: 1⁄2 = 5⁄10? 

 


1⁄4 = ?⁄10.
Is this possible?
Why or why not?

 

 

How about 1⁄4 = ?⁄100?

What can we do to the denominator to make it 100?

Can we also do this with the numerator?

What fraction do we end up with?

Can you think of some rules that we can display for finding equivalent fractions?
