Describe your strategy finding a fraction equivalent to a given fraction?

Multiply both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of the fraction by any non-zero integer or divide both by any common factor. You will have an equivalent fraction. The best integer to select is 10, so no multiplication is required, simply the addition of a 0.
Thus 4/9 = 40/90 = 400/900 and so on.

How do you do quotient with fractions?
if you can divide whole numbers, turn the fraction into a whole number by finding its equivalent and replacing the fraction with that equivalent. Then divide the new number which should be whole and you have your answer.
What do you call when multiplying the numerator and denominator of a ratio by the same factor?
It is finding an equivalent fraction.
What is a fully reduced fractions?
A fully reduced fraction is the one which is reduced to the lowest terms by finding an equivalent fraction in which the numerator and denominator are as small as possible.
What are some useful ways of finding equivalent fractions and equivalent ratios?
Multiply both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of the fraction by any non-zero integer or divide both by any common factor. You will have an equivalent fraction or equivalent ratio.
What is the top line of a fraction called?
The top line of a fraction is called the "numerator". This serves to "numerate" the number of objects that you are finding a fraction of. For example, in the fraction 3/4, you are finding three quarters of something else.
What is a strategy for finding equivalent fractions?
cross multipling
What do you do when you are finding an equivalent fraction?
Pick any non-zero integer and multiply both the nuerator and denominator of the original fraction to get an equivalent fraction. You can also pick any common factor.

When completeing the equivalent fraction dose that mean finding a number goes into all the numbers evenly?
No, it does not. It is finding a number that they all go into evenly.

How can equivalent fractions help when adding mixed numbers?
It can help by when finding the LCD (Least Common Denominator) you find the least number they have in common then that number is your equivalent fraction.
What is be the process to finding out what 7 over 11 would be as a decimal?
Remember that a fraction means division. Divide 7 by 11 and you have the equivalent decimal.
Describe how finding the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator of a fraction can help reduce the fraction?
5/7 is a fraction in its simplest form. To create an equivalent fraction it is necessary to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same integer. The opposite is also true. To reduce an equivalent fraction to its simplest form, it is necessary to divide both the numerator and the denominator by the same integer. 20/28 is an equivalent fraction of 5/7. It is possible to reduce 20/28 to 10/14 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2, but that is not the simplest form. 10/14 can be reduced to 5/7 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2 again. To ensure that an equivalent fraction is reduced to its simplest form, it is necessary to divide by the largest factor that is part of both of them. Another term for this the Greatest Common Factor, or GCF.
How do you solve a fraction finding the answer of 112?
112 is an integer, not a fraction.
Which is the best strategy for finding a job as a photographer?
Prepare a portfolio.
