      (1/2) = (1/2)
      
      (1/2) = (1 + 1 / 2 + 1)
      
      (1/2) = (2/3)

      The statement is too broad. You can only multiply the numerator and denominator to keep it the same if I remember correctly.

      1/2 + 1/4 = x
      (1×2)/(2x2)  + 1/4 = x
      2/4 + 1/4 = x
      3/4 = x
