1. When I compare the fractions: (a) 2/3 ≠ 3/4, so ✗ (b) 3/5 = 6/10, so ✓ (c) 4/12 = 1/3, and 2/6 = 1/3, so ✓ (d) 6/3 = 2 but 1/3 = 0.33, so ✗ Therefore, the equivalent pairs are (b) and (c). These fractions show the same portion of a whole, even though their numerators and denominators are different.Read more

  2. I can find many equivalent fractions. For example: (a) 1/7 = 2/14 = 3/21 (b) 2/3 = 4/6 = 6/9 (c) 3/4 = 6/8 = 9/12 (d) 3/5 = 6/10 = 9/15 They are equivalent fractions because when I multiply both numerator and denominator by the same number, the value does not change. The fractions look different, buRead more

  3. If I use the fraction kit, I see that one piece of 1/5 is a small part of the whole. When I place 5 such pieces together, they perfectly cover the whole unit. This means five one-fifths make one whole. So, 1 = 5/5. It shows that 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5 equals one complete whole.   For moreRead more

  4. The whole chikki was divided into three equal parts. Sevi got one part, which is 1/3. Shami got the remaining two parts, which is 2/3. If I compare, 2 parts are always bigger than 1 part when the size of parts is equal. So, Shami ate more chikki than Sevi because 2/3 is greater than 1/3.   ForRead more

  5. When denominators are the same, the fraction with the bigger numerator is greater. So, (a) 1/4 < 3/4, (b) 3/5 < 4/5, (c) 5/7 > 2/7, (d) 7/8 > 3/8, (e) 5/10 < 6/10, and (f) 2/6 > 1/6. On the number line too, the bigger numerator means the point is further to the right. That’s why weRead more
