Equivalent fractions
Mathematics · Fractions · conceptual
Recognise and show, using diagrams, equivalent fractions with small denominators
What mastery looks like
- Show that 1/2 = 2/4 using a diagram of equal parts
- Use a fraction wall or bar model to find equivalent fractions
- Explain why two fractions are equivalent by comparing the shaded areas
Check your understanding
If Equivalent fractions sees a bar divided into 4 equal parts with 2 shaded, can they tell you that's the same as 1/2 — and draw a different bar showing the same amount another way?
