3.2 Equivalent Fractions

START

HOW TO PLAY

Something suspicious has happened aboard Starship Mathion — the ship’s data has been scrambled! Four crewmates each claim they know which fractions are equal... but one of them is the Impostor — giving false fraction facts that could cause the ship’s systems to fail. Your mission, Cadet, is to:

1. Analyze each crewmate’s alibi.
2. Decide who the impostor is — the one whose fractions aren’t equivalent.
3. Justify your accusation with a Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning.

I was recalibrating the fuel gauges. The readings showed 1/2 of the tanks filled. I double-checked using the secondary system — it read 2/4 full. See? Everything matches perfectly!

I was repairing the oxygen filters. Only 4/8 were online, but the backup system said it was running at 1/2 capacity. They check out the same to me.

The data bay was fine! 5/10 of the files uploaded successfully, and that’s the same as half the data. Everything was functioning!

While adjusting the solar panels, I noticed that 3/6 of the cells were active and that’s the same as 2/3 power output, right?

1. Claim

2. Evidence

They're sus because they said ___.

3. Reasoning
