It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet titled
"Equivalent Fractions" with a series of problems asking to compare pairs of fractions using the symbols
<, >, or =.
Since I can't view images directly, I’ll need you to provide the actual content of the worksheet — either by typing out the problems or describing them. However, I can guide you through how to solve such problems and explain the method.

🔍 How to Compare Fractions:
To determine whether two fractions are equal, or which is greater/less than the other, follow these steps:
####
✔ Step 1: Find a Common Denominator
Convert both fractions so they have the same denominator (LCD), then compare the numerators.
####
✔ Step 2: Cross-Multiply (Alternative Method)
For fractions \( \frac{a}{b} \) and \( \frac{c}{d} \):
- Multiply \( a \times d \) and \( c \times b \)
- If \( a \times d > c \times b \), then \( \frac{a}{b} > \frac{c}{d} \)
####
✔ Step 3: Simplify First (If Possible)
Reduce fractions to their simplest form before comparing.

🧩 Example Problem:
Let’s say one problem is:
> Compare: \( \frac{2}{4} \) ___ \( \frac{3}{6} \)
Step 1: Simplify both:
- \( \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2} \)
- \( \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} \)
So, \( \frac{2}{4} = \frac{3}{6} \)
Answer:
