Description
This image is a variation of the previous one, now showing the equivalence of 3/12 and 1/4 on number lines. It displays two number lines, one marked from 0 to 1 with 12 equal divisions and a point at 3/12, and another marked from 0 to 1 with 4 equal divisions and a point at 1/4.
This representation further reinforces the concept of equivalent fractions using number lines. It helps students visualize how fractions with different denominators can represent the same value.
Teachers can use this image to discuss simplifying fractions with larger denominators and to practice identifying equivalent fractions on number lines.
Teacher's Script: "Now we're comparing 3/12 and 1/4 on number lines. Where do these fractions fall on their respective number lines? How can we use this to understand that they're equivalent? What number did we divide both the top and bottom of 3/12 by to get 1/4?"
