Equivalent Fractions Math Antics

Students take a model given and divide it up into equal parts.

Equivalent fractions math antics.

By the time they have worked through the first model they have found four equivalent fractions. If i eat 2 4 of a pizza if i eat 2 out of 4 equal pieces that s the same fraction of the pizza as if i eat 1 out of 2 equal pieces. Watch this first then try the kahoot. Here i m using a 2 in the numerator and a 4 in the denominator.

Please follow and like us. So we would say that these two things are equivalent fractions. A simple way to have students use fractional models to figure out equivalent fractions. These two fractions represent the same quantity.

You can only multiply d. Interactive notebook for teaching equivalent fractions with models. I ate the same amount of pizza. So if we multiply the numerator times 7 and the denominator times 7 we ll get 21 because 3 times 7 is 21 over 35.

And so 3 5 and 21 35 are equivalent fractions. Well by the same principle as long as we multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same numbers we ll get an equivalent fraction.
