Let's say you have 1/2 and 4/8
1.) Simplifying
Divide 4/8 by 4 to the numerator and denominator. You should get 1/2 which is equivalent to 1/2
2.) Cross multiplying
Cross multiply 1/2 x 4/8 (you multiply the numerator to the other fraction's denominator).
You should get 1 x 8 = 2 x 4
This simplified is 8 = 8 which is true.
Therefore the two fractions are equivalent. Hope this helps! :)
