Evidence (An Example) 3. Write or tell a short story that makes use of equivalent fraction I have bought a cake for my mum and myself. If the cake is cut equally into two pieces, each piece is also one-half (1/2) of the cake that I can share with my mother. Later, two friends came to my place and I want to share the cake with them too. So I decided to cut the cake equally into 4 pieces instead. Each of us eats one quarter (1/4) of the cake. So then two pieces of cake that were to be shared with my two friends represent the same amount of cake that I will be eating if the cake was shared with only my mum and myself. We say that 1/2 is equivalent to 2/4.
