                  c.        of 24 stars =                                    d.         of 24 pencils =
                       4                                                            3















            2.  Draw and colour as per the fraction.

                        1                                  1                                      1
                 a.         of 10 squares           b.         of 9 rectangles             c.         of 4 ovals
                        2                                  3                                      4
                                                                       1
            3.  Andy has 72 sweets in a bag. He keeps      of them for himself and shares the
                                                                       4
                 rest of sweets with his friends. How many sweets will he give to his friends ?

            Equivalent Fractions


            You know that fractions with the same numerator and denominator show
            the whole.
                                        2        3       4        5       6
            So, we can say that             =        =       =        =
                                        2        3       4        5       6

            Here,  though  the  fractions  are  unlike  but  they  have  the  same  value.  Such

                                                                     .
            fractions  are  called  equivalent  fractions So,  equivalent  fractions  are  those
            fractions which have the same value.

            Look  at  the  pictures  given  on  the  next  page  where  a  square  has  been

            divided into equal parts and some parts are shaded. Look at the fractions
            for the shaded parts.
