Multiply or divide top and bottom of the fraction by the same non-zero number. For example, if you have the fraction 2/3, you can multiply both numbers by 2, to get 4/6, which is an equivalent fraction to 2/3. Similarly, if you have the fraction 4/6, you can divide top and bottom by 2, to get the simpler fraction 2/3.
You can multiply is numerator and denominator by the same number
Suppose you have a fraction such as 3/7.To find an equivalent fraction, think of any non-zero integer. How about 6?Multiply the top and the bottom of your original fraction by this number to get an equivalent fraction. So3/7 = (3*6)/(7*6) = 18/42Suppose you have a fraction such as 3/7.To find an equivalent fraction, think of any non-zero integer. How about 6?Multiply the top and the bottom of your original fraction by this number to get an equivalent fraction. So3/7 = (3*6)/(7*6) = 18/42Suppose you have a fraction such as 3/7.To find an equivalent fraction, think of any non-zero integer.

In what situtation can you use only multiplication to find equivalent fraction? Give an example
To find out if two fractions are equivalent, either reduce them both to their simplest forms (which will be the same number if they're equivalent) or convert them to decimals (which will be the same number if they're equivalent). To make an equivalent fraction of a given fraction, multiply the numerator and the denominator of the given fraction by the same counting number.
