1 2 8 3 6

2 4 16 6 12

Each of these fractions shows the same part of the square. So, each of these

fractions has the same value and are equivalent fractions.
1 2 3 6 8
So, = = = =
2 4 6 12 16

Look at the collection of 18 balls, grouped differently and the fractions are

written for the coloured groups of the balls.

1 2 3

3 6 9

You will notice that in each case, same number of a balls (6 balls) are shaded.

1 2 3
So, = = as they are equivalent.
