  • 232 is equivalent to 116 because 116 = 232
  • 348 is equivalent to 116 because 116 = 348
  • 464 is equivalent to 116 because 116 = 464
  • 580 is equivalent to 116 because 116 = 580
  • 696 is equivalent to 116 because 116 = 696
  • and so on ...

At a glance, equivalent fractions look different, but if you reduce them to the lowest terms, you will get the same value, showing that they are equivalent. If a given fraction is not reduced to the lowest terms, you can find other equivalent fractions by dividing both numerator and denominator by the same number.

What is an equivalent fraction? How do we know if two fractions are equivalent?

Finding equivalent fractions can be easy if you use this rule:

Equivalent fractions definition: two fractions ab and cd are equivalent only if the product (multiplication) of the numerator (a) of the first fraction and the denominator (d) of the other fraction is equal to the product of the denominator (b) of the first fraction and the numerator (c) of the other fraction.

In other words, if you cross-multiply (ab and cd), the equality will remain, i.e., a.d = b.c. So here are some examples:

  • 232 is equivalent to 116 because 2 × 16 = 32 × 1 = 32
  • 348 is equivalent to 116 because 3 × 16 = 48 × 1 = 48
  • 464 is equivalent to 116 because 4 × 16 = 64 × 1 = 64
