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.
