Question

Which of the following is an equivalent fraction of $\frac{2}{3}$?

• A. $\frac{1}{3}$
• B. $\frac{4}{6}$
• C. $\frac{3}{2}$
• D. $\frac{1}{9}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{4}{6}$

Equivalent fractions are those which have the same numerical value.
Among the four options, $\frac{4}{6}$can be reduced to $\frac{2}{3}$. The fractions $\frac{1}{3}$and $\frac{1}{9}$
cannot be reduced further as their numerator is 1. The fraction $\frac{3}{2}$is the reciprocal of the fraction $\frac{2}{3}$ and hence cannot be an equivalent fraction of $\frac{2}{3}$.
