Question

learn with an example or watch a video
which fraction is equivalent to \\(\frac{1}{3}\\)?
\\(\frac{3}{8}\\) \\(\frac{3}{6}\\) \\(\frac{2}{6}\\) \\(\frac{2}{4}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Simplify each option

Simplify \(\frac{3}{8}\): It can't be simplified to \(\frac{1}{3}\) since \(3\div1
eq8\div3\).
Simplify \(\frac{3}{6}\): \(\frac{3\div3}{6\div3}=\frac{1}{2}
eq\frac{1}{3}\).
Simplify \(\frac{2}{6}\): \(\frac{2\div2}{6\div2}=\frac{1}{3}\), which matches.
Simplify \(\frac{2}{4}\): \(\frac{2\div2}{4\div2}=\frac{1}{2}
eq\frac{1}{3}\).

Answer:

\(\frac{2}{6}\) (the third option, or the option with \(\frac{2}{6}\))
