- 1. Fractions Equivalent Fractions What will we learn today? • recognising and naming equivalent fractions • listing the first 8 equivalent fractions of a given fraction,
- 2. We have learnt about fractions in Primary 2. It’s time for us to take it to a new level. Let’s try to learn some new concepts!
- 3. Equivalent Fractions Equivalent Fractions have the same value, even though they may look different.
- 4. Look at the diagram
- 5. We can see that 1 whole is equal to 3 one-thirds.
- 6. We can see that one-third is equal to 2 one-sixths.
- 7. Looking the diagram, we can say that
- 8. Try these out! List the next equivalent fraction of the given fraction. 1)½= ______ 2)⅛= ______
- 9. Try these out! List the next equivalent fraction of the given fraction. 1)½= 2 4 2)⅛= 2 16
- 10. This is how you do it Change the bottom using multiply or divide, and the same to the top must be applied
- 11. Summary Important You can make equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing both top and bottom by the same amount.
- 12. Summary Important If we keep dividing until we can't go on any further, then we have simplified the fraction.
- 13. Summary Important We can only multiply or divide, never add or subtract, to get an equivalent fraction.
- 14. Try these out! List the next two equivalent fraction of the given fraction. 1)½= 2)⅛=
- 15. Try these out! List the next two equivalent fraction of the given fraction. 1)½= 2 3 4 , 6 2)⅛= 2 3 16 , 24
- 16. Are you ready to try out the questions?
