What Fraction Is Equal To/

What fraction is equal to/

Answer:

Find equivalent fractions. Enter a fraction, mixed number or integer to get fractions that are equivalent to your input. Example entries:

Fraction - like 2/3 or 15/16

Mixed number - like 1 1/2 or 4 5/6

Integer - like 5 or 28 Equivalent fractions are fractions with different numbers representing the same part of a whole. They have different numerators and denominators, but their fractional values are the same.

For example, think about the fraction 1/2. It means half of something. You can also say that 6/12 is half, and that 50/100 is half. They represent the same part of the whole. These equivalent fractions contain different numbers but they mean the same thing: 1/2 = 6/12 = 50/100

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same whole number. As long as you multiply both top and bottom of the fraction by the same number, you wont change the value of the fraction, and yoll create an equivalent fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find fractions equivalent to 3/4 by multiplying the numerator and denominator by the same whole number:

3/4×22=68

3/4×33=912

3/4×44=1216

3/4×55=1520

3/4×66=1824

Therefore these are all equivalent fractions:

3/4 = 6/8 = 9/12 = 15/20 = 18/24

Note that if you reduce all of these fractions to lowest terms, they equal 3/4.
