Scale a fraction up — fill the new bar until it reaches the same line, so 1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8.
An equivalent fraction names the same amount with bigger numbers — 1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8 — made by multiplying top and bottom by the same number. The child scales a fraction up and fills the new bar to the same line, seeing the amount stay put while the pieces multiply. Distinct from simplifying down. Best for Grades 3–5.
