Question

Mrs. Dalton needs 1/2 cup mixed nuts for her granola recipe. She only has a 1/4 cup measuring cup. Write the equivalent fraction that shows the amount of mixed nuts she will use for the recipe.

Answer 1

1/4 = .25

1/2 = .50

If you multiply 1/4 by 2, it is equal to 2/4 or .50 .

If you want to simplify, 2/4 divided by 2 equals 1/2.

Actual equivalent fraction: 2/4
Simplified: 1/2

Hope I was able to help!
