Game: MIX AND MATCH
Aim: Drag question blocks to answer boxes
Method:
Drag the question block over the right answer box to tidy up the play room. Points are added and taken away automatically.
Click the answer boxes to hear the answer for each box. You must answer 5 questions correctly to complete the game
3rd grade / Fractions / Compare fractions / Identify equivalent fractions
Equivalent fractions are different fractions that represent the same part of a whole or the same value. Although their numerators and denominators may be different, they have an equal value when simplified. That is, their ratio remains the same.
For example, let's consider the fraction 1/2. To find an equivalent fraction, you can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, such as 2. This gives us (1 × 2) / (2 × 2) = 2/4. The fractions 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent because they represent the same portion of a whole, which is half.
Here are a few more examples of equivalent fractions:
In this topic you are asked to identify the equivalent fractions in a list of 4 fractions. You will need to see which of the fractions can be simplified, and when simplified, which of the fractions are the same.
With our Mix and match math game you will be practicing the topic "Identify equivalent fractions" from 3rd grade / Fractions / Compare fractions. The math in this game consists of 12 questions that ask you to choose which two fractions are equivalent.
In this game we are in a room with lots of toys - and the room needs clearing up - you need to put the play blocks back in the right boxes to tidy the room and win the game...but which is the right box for each block? Well, you can work that out by comparing the question on the block with the math answer on each of the boxes - you should drag the question block into the box whose math answer matches the picture question.
You can listen to the spoken math answer by clicking on the individual boxes. There are 5 blocks to clear up - but if you put them in the wrong boxes, there will be more... Anyway, tidy is good and practicing math is better so start now and see how you get on...
This game reinforces the math you learned or revised in the lesson by asking you to match each question to the correct answer. If you are older you may not like the childish reference to toys, but don't worry - there are other games to play, and who knows - you might like a trip down memory lane?
