  1. Making Equivalent Fractions

  2. 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.

  3. What do you get when you multiply a number by 1? You get that number! 5 x 1 = 5 7 x 1 = 7 37 x 1 = 37 23 x 1 = 23 17 x 1 = 17

  4. 4 4 33 33 2 2 5 5 7 7 All these fractions = 1 When the numerator& denominatorof a fraction are thesame, the fraction equals 1.

  5. What do you get when you multiply a fraction by 1? You get AN EQUIVALENT FRACTION that makes adding & subtracting fractions possible.

  6. x = This fraction equals 1. = These fractions represent the same amount.

  7. x = This fraction equals 1. = These fractions represent the same amount.
