multiply the bottom number (denominator) by 2 and it will always give you half of what you had before......1 or 1/1 goes to 1/2 to 1/4 to 1/8 and so on.......works with every fraction......reverse is also true !

Actually it is quite simple. You can do all the math but in the end it amounts to doubling the denominator.
