How to Find Patterns of Equivalent Fractions?

A Step-by-step guide to finding patterns of equivalent fractions

Equivalent fractions are fractions with different denominators and numerators yet they’re equal to the same value. For instance, \(\frac{10}{14}\) and \(\frac{15}{21}\) are both equivalent fractions, since they are both equal.

Number patterns are ordered sets of numbers that obey a rule. To define any pattern, you might have to use multiplication or division on the nominator or the denominator.
