Question

Joel gives 1/3 of his baseball cards to his sister. what is a fraction equivalent to 1/3

Answer 1

2/6, 3/9, and 4/12

Explanation:

Any fraction where you can divide both the numerator and the denominator by the same number to get 1/3 also equals 1/3.

For example: 2/6

When you divide both numbers by 2, you get 1/3. Which means they are equivalent fractions (or equal).

3/9

If you multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number, it will be equal to 1/3.

For example:

1/3 * 3/3 = 3/9

1/3 * 8/8 = 8/24
