If you ate 4 slices of an 8-slice pizza, you ate half of the pizza. Therefore, 4/8 = 1/2. Can you find any other fractions that are also equal to 1/2?

I can identify equivalent fractions.

a fraction can be written in a lot of different ways that are equal to the original. To find these "equivalent fractions," multiply (or divide) both the numerator and denominator by the same number.

Let's do some examples:

Find a fraction that is equivalent to:

1. 2/3

2. 3/4

3. 5/8

4. 8/6

5. 20/10

Fill in the missing piece of the equivalent fractions:

We can also look at two fractions and figure out if they are equivalent, or not. In order to do that, see if you can multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same number to turn one fraction into the other.

Determine if each set of fractions are equivalent, or not:

SIDE NOTE: What if you have a number like "4" and you want to turn it into a fraction?
