When using fraction strips how do you know that to fractions are equivalent

Mathematics

You basically would use how long they are. If you had a strip of 1/2 and a strip of 3/4... with blocks they wouldn't be the same length. The 3/4 blocks would be greater.

However if you matched a 1/2 strip with a 3/6 strip, you can see that they are the same length and are equivalent. 

Of course their is a way to do it mathematically but let me know if you want to see that.

the equation y equals 0.25 x describes a proportional relationship between X and Y what is the constant of proportionality
Fittoniya [83]
The constant of proportionality is for every 1 x, there is 0.25 y. y = 0.25, and on a graph, x is always the "1." Since x is worth 1, y must be worth 0.25.

-5x/6  + 1=7/18
lowest common multiple=18
-15x+18=7
-15x=7-18
-15x=-11
x=-11/-15=11/15

The solution set is [11/15]

we check it out.
-5(11/15) /6    +  1 =7/18
(-55/15) / 6 +1=7/18
-55/90  +  1=7/18
(-55+90) /90=7/18
35/90=7/18
7/18=7/18
