I don't understand what you mean by 300 and 70, unless you meant 300/70 (in that case it would be 30/7).


5/10 would be 1/5


8/100 would be 2/25.

Hello!

There are many other ways you can write these fractions. They are called "equivalent fractions".

Equivalent fractions mean the same thing as other fractions. You can get an equivalent fraction by either multiplying or dividing the numerator and the denominator of the fraction by the SAME number.

300/70 ÷ 10 = 30/7

So, 300/70 is equivalent to 30/7. You can also multiply by, say, 2.

300 × 2 = 600

70 × 2 = 140

So, 600/140 is also another fraction that is equivalent to 300/70.

5/10 is equivalent to 10/20, 15/30, 20/40, and many more fractions.

8/100 is equivalent to 4/50, 2/25, etc.
