Question
Look at the number lines.
Three number lines are shown. The top number line goes from 0 to 1, with one tick mark in the middle of the line labeled one-half. The middle number line goes from 0 to 1, with three tick marks labeled one-fourth, two-fourths, and three-fourths. The bottom number line goes from 0 to 1, with seven tick marks labeled one-eighth, two-eighths, three-eighths, four-eighths, five-eighths, six-eighths, and seven-eighths. All three number lines show 0 and 1 at the same position.
Complete both equations using equivalent fractions.
(1 point)
One half is equivalent to

1 answer
To complete the equations using equivalent fractions:
One half is equivalent to two-fourths. (Since \( \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{4} \))
One half is equivalent to four-eighths. (Since \( \frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{8} \))
So the completed sentences are:
One half is equivalent to two-fourths and equivalent to four-eighths.
