This document discusses equivalent, simplifying, and comparing fractions. It explains that equivalent fractions have the same value but different numerators and denominators. It provides steps for simplifying multiplication and division of fractions, such as using common denominators. It also describes techniques for comparing fractions, whether they have the same or different denominators, such as finding common denominators or determining which fraction has the smaller denominator and thus a larger value.

1. Equivalent, Simplifying
and Comparing Fractions
By : YuHan

2. Equivalent Fractions 1
Equivalent Fractions are 2 fractions that have
the same value but a different Numerator and
Denominator.

3. Simplifying Fractions 1
T Simplify Multiplication Fraction Problem :
o
You can simplify a multiplication problem when
the first fractions numerator is a multiple of the
second fractions denominator. You can also
simplify the second fractions numerator with the
first fractions denominator.

4. Simplifying Fractions 2
Simplifying a Division Fraction Problem :
You can simplify a division fraction problem by
doing the exact same steps as simplifying a
Multiplication Fraction problem. But you have to
flip the second fractions numerator and
denominator around before you simplify.

5. Comparing Fractions 1
Fractions with the same denominator is called a
Like Fraction and fractions with different
denominator is called a Unlike Fraction. T see
o
which like fractions is greater, the fraction with
the greater numerator is bigger.

6. Comparing Fractions 2
T calculate which fractions with the same
o
numerator is bigger, you will have to see which
denominator is smaller. The smaller the
denominator, the less parts the fraction has,
making the numerator bigger. In a simpler form,
The smaller the denominator, the larger the
fraction is.

7. Comparing Fractions 3
How do you see which fraction is bigger when
they both have a different denominator and a
numerator? One of the ways is to first find the
lowest common denominator of both the
fractions and multiply the numerator by how
much you multiplied to get the denominator
below. After you do those steps on both the -

8. Comparing Fractions 4
fractions, do the steps on the Comparing
Fractions 1 Slide to know which fraction is
greater.
