However if you turn on the equivalent fraction function by clicking the 'Eq' toggle button. Now when a brick is clicked the other layers will turn on bricks if they can match an equivalent fraction. Note, this is not always possible, in fact if you select the primes wall it is never possible to show an equivalent fraction. In this case all the other layers have bricks turned off. Also known as 'the lowest common multiple' or 'smallest common multiple' is crucial when adding, subtracting or comparing fractions.

This button will calculate the LCM based on the rows that have active bricks. Pressing the LCM button will create a new wall that contains the originally selected fraction but also a new layer with the number of divisions equalling the least common multiple of the denominators of the other rows.

Sounds complicated, but it really just means that it is always possible to create an equivalent fraction in the LCM row from the other rows. To show or hide the advanced section click the advanced toggle button. When the advance controls are on, each layer of the wall has a dedicated slider, move this to change the number the number of bricks in that layer.
