Question

Brett shaded 4/8 of a sheet of notebook paper. Aisha says he shaded 1/2 of the paper. Are the two fractions equivalent? if so, what is another equivalent fraction

Answer 1

The two fractions are equivalent; another equivalent fraction is 3/6

Explanation:

`(1)/(2)` x 4 = 4/8, therefore the fractions are equivalent.

1/2 x 3 = 3/6 which is equivalent to 1/2.
