Game: THE FROG FLIES
Aim: Help the frog catch the flies
Method:
Use keyboard arrow keys or tap your tablet/mobile to control the frog and catch the flies. Avoid the birds! Answer the math questions to win additional points.
Scoring is based on speed, flies caught and the number of correct answers.
7th grade / Number / Fractions / Fraction basics / Identify equivalent fractions
There are various ways to identify pairs of fractions that are equivalent:
Simplify both fractions to their lowest terms: To do this, find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator of each fraction and divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF. The result will be a simplified fraction that is equivalent to the original fraction.
For example, say you have two fractions, 2/4 and 3/6. The GCF of 2 and 4 is 2. Dividing numerator and denominator by 2 gives us 1/2. The GCF of 3 and 6 is 3. Dividing numerator and denominator by 3 gives us 1/2. Since the simplified fractions are the same, the original fractions (2/4 and 3/6) are equivalent.
Another method to identify equivalent fractions is to cross-multiply. To do this, multiply the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction, and vice versa. If the results are the same, then the fractions are equivalent.
For example, if you have two fractions, 2/3 and 4/6, you can cross-multiply to get 2 x 6 = 12 and 4 x 3 = 12. Since the results are the same, the fractions are equivalent.
A third way to identify equivalent fractions is to convert both fractions to decimals and compare the decimals. If the decimals are the same, then the fractions are equivalent.
For example, if you have two fractions, 1/3 and 2/6, you can convert them to decimals by dividing the numerator by the denominator. 1/3 = 0.3333 and 2/6 = 0.3333. Since the decimals are the same, the fractions are equivalent.
By following these steps, you can identify pairs of fractions that are equivalent.
With our The frog flies math game you will be practicing the topic "Identify equivalent fractions" from 7th grade / Number / Fractions / Fractions. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify the pairs of fractions that are equivalent.
Learn or revise math with our fun interactive game THE FROG FLIES! You are a happy hungry frog in the middle of the jungle in the middle of the night. Catch the flies for your supper (and practice math just for fun).
You can play the game on tablet/mobile or desktop computer. On handheld devices you move the frog by tapping where you want it to move to. On a computer, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move.
Sometimes a big bird swoops through the forest catching unwary amphibians so stay alert and get out of the way of its beak!
Scoring is based on flies caught, questions answered and number of deaths by bird. Your final score is your total points minus your time in seconds.
The highest scores for each topic can be saved and seen by clicking on the star button, so get learning and get your frog's name up in lights!
