Equivalent Fractions (Easy)

How to Solve Fractions - Concepts

Ask what the denominator was multiplied by, then multiply the numerator by the same number. For 3/4 = ?/12: the 4 became 12 by multiplying by 3, so the missing numerator is 3 x 3 = 9. Multiplying top and bottom by the same number keeps the fraction's value unchanged.
