Equivalent Fractions for 1/2

To find three equivalent fractions for 1/2, we can multiple 1/2 by the equivalent of 1/1. For example: 1/2 x 1/1 = 1/2 since 1/1 = 1 and multiplying by 1 does not change the value. If we multiply: 1/2 x 2/2 = 4/4 Here again, since 2/2 = 1 we aren't changing the value, just the way it is written. Both 1/2 and 2/4 are equal to 0.5. We could also multiply by 3/3, 4/4, 5/5 and so on to find more fractions that are equal to 1/2. As long as we are multiplying by the equivalent of 1, we'll get a fraction that is the same as 1/2. Although equivalent fractions are written differently, like 1/2 or 2/4, they have the same value. In order to find equivalent fractions we multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number. In their simplest form all equivalent fractions will be reduced to the same fraction.
