In equivalent division, you multiply (or divide) the dividend and the divisor by the same number to form a new problem that is easier to calculate metally. The new problem will produce the same quotient. ie: 2 divided by 1/2, if you multiply 2 by 2 you get 4 and if you multiply 1/2 by 2 you get 1. 4 divided by 1 = 4. This is the same as the answer to 2 divided by 1/2 (4), it is just easier to do in your head.
