Equivalent refers to two or more values or expressions that represent the same quantity or are equal in value. In fractions equivalent fractions have the same value even though their numerators and denominators may differ. This concept helps in simplifying or comparing different mathematical expressions.
In Class 6 Maths Chapter 7 on Fractions students learn about fractions where the numerator represents the number of parts and the denominator shows the total number of equal parts. The chapter explains how to simplify fractions perform operations like addition subtraction multiplication and division and understand equivalent fractions for better comparison.
