Equivalent Fractions
Knowing how to find an equivalent fraction is extremely important. This is a skill that my students should have came into 6th grade with but if not I will try to do my best and get them caught up to where they should be in 6th grade.
Equivalent fractions are fractions that look different but are equal. For example, 1/2=2/4.
We have been working with our fraction benchmarks to help us understand equivalent fractions. Some of our benchmarks include- 1/2, 1/4, 1/3, 3/4, 2/3, 0 & 1.
3/4 x 2/2= 6/8
