Question

The fraction that is equivalent to 1 fourth ?
.

  1. 1 over 6
  2. 2 over 6
  3. 1 over 8
  4. 2 over 8

hintHint:

Let’s reduce all the given options to their simplest form. If the resultant fraction matches with 1/4, we’ll get our required result.

The correct answer is: 2 over 8


    Equivalent fraction of 1 fourth is 2 over 8 (Multiply with 2)
    a)       The HCF of 1 and 8 is 1. Hence, it’s in its simplest form
    b)      The HCF of 1 and 6 is 1. Hence, it’s in its simplest form .
    c)       Let’s divide both numerator and denominator by 2. (Since both are being divide by the same number, the value of the fraction remains same.) We get 1/4 on division, which is the required answer. HCF of 1 and 4 is 1.
    d)      First, let’s divide both numerator and denominator by 2. (Since both are being divide by the same number, the value of the fraction remains same.) We get 1/3 on division.
    Hence our required answer is option c, 2/8

    An equivalent fraction means that each of the fractions might have different numerators and denominators but have the same exact value when reduced to their simplest form.
    For example, 5/15 and 2/6 have then same value, 1/3 when reduced to their simplest form.
    Simplest form means that the highest common factor of the denominator and numerator is 1.
    Common factor is that number by which 2 or more numbers can be divided without leaving a remainder
