Mike says that 3/3 of his fraction model is shaded blue. Ryan says that 6/6 of the same model is shaded blue. Are the two fractions equivalent? If so, what is another equalivant fraction?
they are the same.
10/10, 5000/5000, ...
6_3
IS THAT THE ANSWER I PUT??????
To determine if the two fractions are equivalent, we need to compare them and find a way to represent them in a similar form.
Let's start with Mike's statement: he says that 3/3 of his fraction model is shaded blue. When the numerator and denominator of a fraction are the same, it means that the entire model is shaded. So, 3/3 means that the entire fraction model is shaded blue.
Now let's move on to Ryan's statement: he says that 6/6 of the same model is shaded blue. Like with Mike's fraction, when the numerator and denominator are the same, it represents the whole model. Therefore, 6/6 indicates that the entire fraction model is shaded blue as well.
Since both Mike's and Ryan's fractions represent the entire fraction model being shaded blue, they are equivalent fractions.
To find another equivalent fraction, we can multiply or divide the numerator and denominator of either fraction by the same number. In this case, since 3/3 is already the simplest form of the fraction, let's use that as a starting point.
If we multiply both the numerator and denominator of 3/3 by 2, we get 6/6. This gives us another equivalent fraction.
Therefore, 3/3 and 6/6 are equivalent fractions, and another equivalent fraction is 6/6.
