Equivalent Fractions
To Make Equivalent Fractions
• Multiply the numerator and
  denominator by the same number.
• You will get a new fraction with the
  same value as the original fraction.
• We are not changing the value of the
  fraction, because we are simply
  multiplying by a fraction that is
  equivalent to ONE.
What do you get when you multiply a
number by 1?

       You get that number!

5x1=5
                                  7x1=7
               37 x 1 = 37

 23 x 1 = 23        17 x 1 = 17
All these fractions = 1             7
                           2
                                    7
                           2
         When the
       numerator &             33
     denominator of a
  fraction are the same,
                               33
        the fraction
         equals 1.                  4
                           5
                                    4
                           5
What do you get when you multiply
a fraction by 1?

             You get
   AN EQUIVALENT FRACTION
           that makes
  adding & subtracting fractions
            possible.
