• A. The fraction 1/2 is equal to 2/4 because it is the same amount of wood.

• B. The fraction 2/1 is equal to 2/4 because they both have a 2 in the fraction.

• C. The fraction 1/4 is equal to 2/4 because they both have a 4 in the fraction.

• D. The fraction 4/4 is equal to 2/4 because it is the number of pieces of wood.
