Ordering Rational Numbers

Sort rational numbers, including positive, negative, decimal, and fractional values in this activity.

Equivalent Fractions

Move the sliders m and n to control the fraction.[br][br]You can create more slices by changing the slider, d. and then ticking the checkbox. [br][br]The fractions are equal (equivalent), if you write the two fractions in the form [math]\frac14[/math], [math]\frac5{20}[/math] for example. How can you tell they are equivalent?
