What is the definition of equivalent fractions in math terms?
Equivalent fractions are fractions that are the same amount but they have different numbers.
How are your stratagies for writing equivalent ratios the same as or different from writing equivalent fractions?
The strategies for writing equivalent ratios is the same as writing equivalent fractions.
How are your strategies for writing equivalent ratios the same or different from writing equivalent fractions?
They are the same.
What is three fourths equivalent fractions?
Equivalent fractions appear to be different values, but reduce to the same simplified form. They represent the same part of a whole.
What is the equivalent fractions of?
1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8 are three different looking fractions that all mean the same, and are equivalent fractions.
Are the steps for like and unlike denominators the same or different?
It depends what you are doing with the fractions. If you are multiplying or dividing fraction, the denominators do not need to be the same and the calculation can be carried out immediately. If you are adding or subtracting fractions, the denominators must be the same; if you have different denominators, the fractions must first be changed into equivalent fractions with the same denominator. When the denominators are the same (or have been made the same as equivalent fractions from being different) the calculation can be carried out.
What are two or more fractions that name the same value called?
Fractions that name the same value are called equivalent fractions. Equivalent fractions have different numerators and denominators but represent the same proportion of a whole. For example, 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent fractions because they both represent half of a whole.
What are equilavent fractions?
Equivalent fractions can be defined as fractions that may have different numerators and denominators but they represent the same value. For example, 9/12 and 6/8 are equivalent fractions because both are equal to 3/4.
What is the fractions have the same size or haven the same value?
Fractions that have the same size or the same value are called equivalent fractions. They represent the same amount or quantity, even though they may look different. For example, 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent fractions because they both represent half of a whole.
How are strategies for writing equivalent ratios the same as or different from writing equivalent fractions?
Yes they are.
What do you do when comparing fractions and the denominator and the numerator are different?
Convert them into equivalent fractions with the same denominator and then compare the numerators.
Why is it important to learn about equivalent fractions?
Answer: When adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators it is important to change the denominators into the lowest common denominator by using equivalent fractions. Answer: Equivalent fractions are used to: * Simplify fractions. It is sort of inelegant to write the final solution of a problem as 123/246, when you can just as well write it as 1/2. * Add fractions. If two fractions have different denominators, you need to convert them to equivalent fractions that have the same denominator. Only then can you add. * Subtract fractions (same as addition). * Compare fractions, to check which one is larger (same as addition).
