Lesson Intro: Finding Equivalent Fractions Using Fraction Strips

Today we will learn how to find equivalent fractions using fraction strips. Equivalent fractions are fractions that may look different but show the same amount or same value. Fraction strips help us see this by comparing parts of a whole. When two fractions cover the same length on the strip, they are equivalent.

For example:

  • 1/2 = 2/4

  • 2/3 = 4/6

By the end of this lesson, you will be able to use fraction strips to compare fractions and identify equivalent fractions correctly.
