How do you work out equivalent fractions?

this is how you find equivalent fractions... OK if you have 3 8th as a fraction, you can times 8 by 2 and get sixteen. what ever you do to the bottom you do to the top. so you also times 3 by 2 and get 6. your new fraction is 6 16th. get it? you can times the number by any other number. but i say times it by 2 because it's easier:)


Can the quotient of two fractions be ever equal to one?

Yes, but only if the two fractions are the same or equivalent fractions (other than 0).


Can multiplication ever make a number smaller?

Certainly, if you multiply fractions for instance.


Are fractions a real number?

Fractions can be real, imaginary, or complex. In your case, we're willing to bet that any fraction that you've ever encountered so far has been a real number.


How many different ways can you write a fraction that has a numerator of 2 as a sum of fractions?

Infinitely many ways, since if you have found one way then take one of the fractions and replace it by an equivalent fraction. Repeat for ever.


What are a score or more fundamental facts about fractions?

1 Fractions are parts of whole numbers or integers2 Fractions have numerators placed above denominators3 Fractions have a solidus line that separates numerator from the denominator4 Fractions can be common as for example 3/45 Fractions can be improper or 'top heavy' as for example 22/76 Fractions can form part of a mixed number as for example 3 and 1/77 Fractions can be converted into percentages: 3/4 = 75%8 Fractions can be converted into decimals: 1/2 = 0.59 Fractions can be equivalent: 5/8 = 10/1610 Fractions need a common denominator when added or subtracted11 Fractions can easily be multiplied and divided12 Fractions are rational numbers13 Fractions can never ever be irrational numbers14 Fractions are turned into decimals by dividing numerator by denominator15 Fractions can be turned into improper fractions from mixed numbers16 Fractions are used in algebra and trigonometry17 Fractions are used when converting Centigrade to Fahrenheit18 Fractions are best eliminated before solving equations19 Fractions can be the solutions of quadratic equations20 Fractions can be changed into scientific notation: 1/5000 = 2.0*10-421 Fractions are in their lowest terms when their HCF is one22 Fractions were once used by the ancient Romans to a limited extent as for example the numeral of S represents 1/2QED


Do you ever multiply a fraction?

Yes, there are times when you multiply fractions.


How do you do greater than and less than with fractions?

You find the common denominator for both fractions and which ever has the highest numerator is greater.

What is three eighths minus one seventh?

If working in fractions, then you must make the fractions have the same denominator (the number on the bottom). To decide what the denominator should be you find what number does 8 and 7 go evenly into (8 x 7=56). Therefore 56 is the new denominator, now you must make the fractions in the question equal the same amount with a denominator of 56. WHAT EVER YOU DO TO THE DENOMINATOR YOU MUST DO TO THE NUMERATOR (TOP NUMBER) TO KEEP THE FRACTION THE SAME VALUE. Then 3/8 = 3x7/8x7 = 21/56, and 1/7 = 1x8/7x8 = 8/56. Now thee question becomes 21/56 - 8/56 = 13/56


How do i divide fractions with a number in from of the fraction?

You have to make the fractions improper then you switch the devision sign to the multiplying sign and then you switch the numbers around on the second fraction then you just multiply the fractions. When ever you do this think keep switch flip you keep the first fraction alone you switch the sign then you flip the last fraction. Good luck 😍


When you add fractions do they have to have the same denominator?

Yes you have to add with the same denominator. when ever you do fractions they have to have the same denominator no matter what. So thats a yes
