Answer: 2/3 and 8/12

Step-by-step explanation: When we multiply or divide the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number, we get an equivalent fraction.

First write 4/6 in lowest terms by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2 to get the equivalent fraction 2/3.

Starting at 4/6 again, if we multiply the numerator and the denominator by 2, we get the equivalent fraction 8/12.

So our two equivalent fractions are 2/3 and 8/12.

It's important to remember the following rule: Whatever you do to the numerator of a fraction, you must also do to the denominator because if you don't, you're changing the value of the fraction.
