There are many fractions that are equivalent to \( \frac{1}{5} \). To find equivalent fractions, you can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same non-zero number. Here are a few examples:
-
Multiply by 2:
\( \frac{1 \times 2}{5 \times 2} = \frac{2}{10} \) -
Multiply by 3:
\( \frac{1 \times 3}{5 \times 3} = \frac{3}{15} \) -
Multiply by 4:
\( \frac{1 \times 4}{5 \times 4} = \frac{4}{20} \)
So, \( \frac{2}{10} \), \( \frac{3}{15} \), and \( \frac{4}{20} \) are all equivalent to \( \frac{1}{5} \).
