There are infinitely many of them. 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.
Well, honey, any two fractions with a denominator of 8 will do the trick. How about 1/8 and 3/8? Or maybe you prefer 5/8 and 7/8? As long as that pesky denominator is 8, you're good to go.
Because to add or subtract two fractions you first have to find equivalent fractions for both which have the same denominator.
If you are adding or subtracting unlike fractions, convert them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator.
Find the equivalent fractions with the same denominator (the least common multiple) and then compare the numerators.
equivalent factors are fractions where the numerator and denominator are multiplied by the same number, so equivalent fractions of 7/8 by 2,3, and 4 are (14/16, 21/24, and 28/32)
There are infinitely many of them. 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.
5/8 - 1/4 = 5/8 - 2/8 = 3/8 (make all fractions equivalent fractions with a common denominator - in this case, a common denominator of 8 - and then subtract the numerators).
No. Like fractions have the same denominator.
Convert them into equivalent fractions with the same denominator and then compare the numerators.

You look for a common denominator; convert the fractions to equivalent fractions with the denominator you found; then you do the addition itself.
If two fractions have a common denominator of 8, it means that both fractions have 8 as their denominator. The fractions could be any two numbers as their numerators, such as 3/8 and 5/8, or 1/8 and 7/8. As long as the denominator is 8 for both fractions, the numerators can vary.
Divide the denominator into the numerator. If the answers are the same decimal, the fractions are equivalent.
To find two fractions equivalent to ( \frac{8}{12} ), we can simplify it by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4. This gives us ( \frac{2}{3} ). Other equivalent fractions can be found by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the same number; for example, ( \frac{4}{6} ) and ( \frac{10}{15} ) are also equivalent to ( \frac{8}{12} ).
Fractions can only be added or subtracted if the denominators are the same. If the denominators are different, then the fractions need to be made into equivalent fractions with the same denominator. The new denominator can be found simply by multiplying the denominators together, but this can lead to some large fractions with which to work. A better new denominator is the lowest common multiple of (all the) denominators. (Once the new denominator is found, the fractions' new numerators are found by multiplying their current numerator by the new denominator divided by their current denominator to make their equivalent fractions with the new denominator.) Once all the fractions are converted into equivalent fractions with the new denominator then the fractions can be added or subtracted, with the result being simplified (if possible).
Indeed, since you have multiplied both the numerator and denominator by the same number, 3/8 and 9/24 are equivalent fractions.
