Equivalent Fractions converting to Fewer, Larger Parts 3-85

Generalize from finding more parts, to finding more challenging, equivalent fractions with fewer parts. 4 eighths is how many halves? Divide 1 – the distance between 0 and 1 – into 8 equal parts. Shade 4 parts, or 4/8. Think of the shaded 4/8 as 1 part. How many are in 1? Since there are 2, each is 1 half, and 4/8 = 1/2.
