This math topic involves using fraction strips to identify and select correct equivalent fractions. Questions prompt students to find equivalences for various fractions such as 1/3, 1/2, and 4/12 in other denominations such as sixths, fourths, thirds, eighths, and ninths. This hands-on method enhances understanding of how different fractions can represent the same value visually and mathematically, gearing towards mastering the concept of equivalent fractions.
