What is the difference between a simplified fraction and an equivalent fraction?
A simplified fraction would be like 1/2. You can't reduce it any more. The only common factor between numerator and denominator is the number one (1). This is one use for finding the Greatest Common Factor between two numbers. Once you find the GCF, just divide the Numerator by GCF, and divide the Denominator by GCF and you have an equivalent fraction which has been reduced to the simplest form.An equivalent fraction is like 3/4 and 6/8. It's the same amount, therefore equal, which is where the name equivalent comes in.An equivalent fraction is a different representation of the simplest form. The numerator and the denominator of the equivalent fraction are multiples of the numerator and the denominator of the simplest form.
What is the difference between a mixed number and a fraction?
A mixed number is a number with both a whole number and a fraction.
What is the difference between a fraction and a rational number?
Very little.A fraction is one integer divided by another.A rational number is one that could be written as a fraction.
What is the difference between a fraction and an equivalent fraction?
They are both fractions... an equivalent fraction is a fraction that is the same as another fraction. For example: 1/2 and 2/4 they are equivalent. A fraction is just .. a fraction any fraction.. 2/7 7/8 8/9 :)
What is the ratio of 33:36 simplified?
To find the simplified fraction, you would first find a common divider between 33 and 36. The only one would be 3. 33 divided by 3 is 11. 36 divided by 3 is 12. The simplified ratio would then be 11/12.
