- Checking if two fractions are equivalent
Finding the Missing Number
Equivalent fractions represent the same value, but they don’t look the same.
Click here to learn more about equivalent fractions.
To find the missing part, we’ll understand it both visually & mathematically.
We have divided the learning into 3 types based on questions.
Type #1: Multiplication Method.
Type #2: Division Method.
Type #3: MnD Method.
Type #1: Multiplication Method
When two fractions are equivalent, we can easily find the missing number just by identifying the multiplication factor.

The above learning strengthens the visual understanding of a concept.
Now let’s discuss how to mathematically work it out.

Type #2: Division Method
We’ll go through visualisation to understand how to find the missing number and how two wholes are equivalently connected.

We can find the missing number mathematically just by finding the division factor.
Follow the steps to make it easier to implement.
Step #1: Check the given parts. It could be both numerators known or both denominators known. We’ll surely have 3 numbers known out of four.
Step #2: Try identifying the division factor.
Step #3: Use the same factor to find the missing number.

Type #3: DnM Method
DnM Method is Divide and Multiply Method. We also call it the multi-step method.
We get two fractions that do not directly show any relationship to find the missing number.

Remember: We always Divide and then Multiply.
Dear starts with D stands for Divide.
Mum starts with M stands for Multiply.
