How does this quiz work?
Read each question, choose one answer among A, B, C and D, then check it: a short explanation appears after every answer. Your score out of 10 is shown at the end, and you can restart the quiz as often as you like.
What should you review before the quiz?
Reread the key facts of the lesson and the worked example. If a question is hard, go back to the matching part of the lesson, then try the quiz again. Write your work on scrap paper: most mistakes come from skipping a step, not from the idea itself.
Remember:
Equivalent fractions are the same size and sit at the same point on a number line.
Examples: \(\frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{4}{8}\) and \(\frac{2}{3} = \frac{4}{6}\).
Any whole number can be written with denominator 1, and \(\frac{4}{4}\) equals 1.
With the same denominator, the larger numerator is the greater fraction.
With the same numerator, the smaller denominator is the greater fraction. Compare only fractions of the same whole.
