Year 6: Week 4, Day 1 Use equivalence to compare fractions
Each day covers one maths topic. It should take you about 1 hour or just a little more.
1. If possible, watch the PowerPoint presentation
with a teacher or another grown-up.
OR start by carefully reading through the Learning Reminders.
2. Tackle the questions on the Practice Sheet.
There might be a choice of either Mild (easier) or Hot (harder)! Check the answers.
3. Finding it tricky? That’s OK… have a go with a grown-
up at A Bit Stuck?
4. Have I mastered the topic? A few questions to

Learning outcomes:• I can identify pairs of equivalent fractions on a fraction line.• I am beginning to identify fractions which are equivalent to ½, ¼ and ⅓, without thehelp of fraction line.
S-t-r-e-t-c-h:Write as many fractions as you can which are equivalent to ½, ¼ and ⅓.

6/☐ = ☐/20 ☐/10 > 1/☐
☐/32 > ☐/8
Write three fractions which are equivalent to 3/4.

Check your understanding Answers
Write the missing numbers. 2/6 = 4/12
6/10 = 12/20 ☐/10 > 1/☐ e.g. 6/10 > 1/2, 4/10 > 1/3 ☐/32 > ☐/8 e.g. 20/32 > 1/8, 5/32 > 1/8. For the 3rd and 4th of these many different answers are possible, are children able to explain their choice?
Write three fractions which are equivalent to 3/4.
E.g. 6/8, 9/12, 12/16, 15/20, 30/40.
Write three fractions which are equivalent to 2/5.
E.g. 4/10, 6/15, 8/20, 10/25, 20/50.
Now add 3/4 and 2/5. 13/20.
The lowest common denominator is twentieths: 3/4 + 2/5 = 15/20 + 8/20 = 23/20 = 13/20.
