This math topic focuses on practicing the identification and use of equivalent fractions by utilizing fraction strips. The problems involve converting given fractions into their equivalent forms in different denominators and selecting the correct equivalent for each case. Specific fractions and their transformations include converting to twelfths, halves, ninths, fifths, and sixths. The tasks enhance understanding of how different fractions represent the same value and improve skills in managing fractions visually. This helps to build foundation in equivalent fractions, an essential aspect of fraction competence.
