Question

what the equivalent fraction of 1/2

Answer 1

An equivalent fraction is created by multiplying or dividing the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the same non-zero number. For the fraction \( \frac{1}{2} \), here are a few equivalent fractions:

- Multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2:
\(\frac{1 \times 2}{2 \times 2} = \frac{2}{4}\)

- Multiply both by 3:
\(\frac{1 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \frac{3}{6}\)

- Multiply both by 4:
\(\frac{1 \times 4}{2 \times 4} = \frac{4}{8}\)

So, \( \frac{2}{4}, \frac{3}{6}, \) and \( \frac{4}{8} \) are all equivalent fractions to \( \frac{1}{2} \).
