Study Notes

Fraction Equivalence and Comparison

  • To understand fraction equivalence, visualize fraction representations on a number line.
  • The number line represents fractions from 0 to 1.
  • Identify equivalent fractions by locating points on the number line.
  • Equivalent fractions represent the same value, even if they are written differently
  • Use the number line to determine if a fraction like 1/2 is greater or less than another fraction, such as 1/3.
  • When comparing fractions, consider their positions on the number line. The fraction located further to the right on the number line represents a larger value.
