Question

Select the fraction that is equivalent to one third.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{2}{6}$ (two sixths)

Step-by-step explanation:

if we scale the fraction 1 / 3 to find equivalent fractions, we can simply multiply both numbers by the same factor.

So, by multiplying both 1 and 3 by two, we will have an equivalent fraction

1      ×  2        =      2
_                            _

3      ×  2        =      6

This means that

$\frac{1}{3}$ (one third) is equivalent to $\frac{2}{6}$ (two sixths)
