Equivalent fractions | MightyOwl Math | 4th Grade

Did you know that the fractions one half and the fraction five tenths have the same value? They're "equivalent fractions", and even though the numerators and denominators are all different numbers, their values overall are the same. Join us in this video as we explore how to create equivalent fractions - this will come in super handy when we move on to adding and subtracting fractions!

Extend understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering:
Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
