Equivalent fraction concentration game




















Play continues until all the squares are removed. In case you need a reminder, equivalent fractions are fractions which have the same value. Let's say you have a pie, and you cut it into four pieces. But if the pie was cut into eight pieces, how many pieces would you have to take to have the same amount? Well, each piece is half as big, so you would need twice as many pieces.

So four pieces out of eight is the same amount as two pieces out of four. This is how you can find out if two fractions are equivalent; if you can multiply both the numerator and denominator by the same number, and get the numerator and denominator of the second fraction, they are equivalent. What do you have to multiply 3 by to get 9?

Three, right? So now multiply 7 the denominator of the first fraction by three. What do you get? And that's the denominator of the second fraction. So the two are equal. Well, if you multiply 2 by 4, you get eight. So now try multiplying the denominator 5 by 4.

Uh oh. You don't get fifteen, you get twenty! So these fractions aren't equivalent. The Problem Site. Quote Puzzler. Tile Puzzler. Loading profile Logged in as:. Password recovery. Go Pro!

Description This is the same game in two different levels.

You can use them to differentiate instruction and practice or to move students from an area where they need more support to a more fluent level. These are both played like concentration or Memory. There are pairs of equivalent fractions on cards. Students place them face down and turn over two to try to make a match of equivalent pairs.
