Question

What is another way to name 1/4

Answer 1

° ∪ ° Hi there!

I will give you a few different ways to name $\frac{1}{4}$

Simply, you can divide the fraction's numerator by it's denominator to get the simple answer of 0.25.

1 ÷ 4 = 0.25

If you were looking for a decimal answer, 0.25 would be just right.

Looking for a percent? No problem!

All you do is take your numerator, divide it by its denominator and you'd get 0.25 AGAIN. But don't throw this decimal number out the window! Multiply it by 100 and see what you get.

0.25 × 100 = 25

Now that we have a whole number of 25, put a percent sign right next to it so it equals 25%!

There is 1 more way I would like to show you.

You could double the numerator and the denominator's size of the fraction to get 2 over 8 :)

It will still equal 0.25, or 25%!

If you wanted to make this fraction even BIGGER, you can multiply the numerator and the denominator's size by whatever you want, as long as they're the same number your multiplying by!
