<span>A fraction is normally expressed in its lowest form. It means that there is no common factor for the numerator and denominator. A common factor is a number that can divide both the numerator and the denominator without a remainder.
A fraction in its lowest form can have any number of equivalent fractions. To create equivalent fractions, multiply both the denominator and the denominator by the same number. For example, 1/2 will become 2/4 when multiplied by 2 and 3/6 when multiplied by 3. We can use any number to multiply but we must multiply both the numerator and the denominator.</span>
