Access full lesson containing this video at: http://www.yourteacher.com/prealgebra/equivalentfractions.php Students learn that two fractions are equivalent if the fractions are the same when they are written in lowest terms. For example, 4/7 and 8/14 are equivalent fractions, because they are both equal to 4/7 when written in lowest terms. Students also learn to find fractions that are equivalent to a given fraction by multiplying the numerator and denominator of the given fraction by the same number. For example, to find fractions that are equivalent to 1/8, multiply the numerator and denominator by 2, to get 2/16, multiply the numerator and denominator by 3, to get 3/24, and so on.

The visual model of splitting existing pieces further is used to teach equivalent fractions. The number of ways each piece is cut into new pieces matches with the number by which you multiply the numerator and the denominator in order to get the equivalent fraction. The video also shows a unique notation for this action, which does not confuse students with the operation of multiplying a fraction by a whole number.
