Equivalent fractions with fraction strips

Teaching Transcript

🎙️

Let's use fraction strips to see how many sixths are the same as 2 thirds

We can see that each third is the same as 2 sixths by lining them up. This is the same for every third, each is 2 sixths.

We can write these as equivalent fractions. 1 third is the exact same thing as 2 sixths.

So if we have 2 thirds, and each third is 2 sixths, then we have a total of 4 sixths

This math skill teaches how to find equivalent fractions using fraction strips. It demonstrates visually how fractions such as thirds and sixths are related by comparing lengths in fraction strips, allowing for the derivation and verification of fraction equivalency.
