If you are trying to convert 1/2 and 2/5 to fractions with different denominators, multiply the fractions by a fraction that is equal to 1. Go to the following URL to see an example.

In this example we see that by multiplying 1/2 by 4/4 (which is equal to 1), we change the fraction's denominator (and numerator) and thus change the numbers without changing the value of the fraction.
