Outcomes

M06.A-N.1.1.1

Interpret and compute quotients of fractions (including mixed numbers), and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions. Example 1: Given a story context for (2/3) ÷ (3/4), explain that (2/3) ÷ (3/4) = 8/9 because 3/4 of 8/9 is 2/3. (In general, (a/b) ÷ (c/d) = (a/b) × (d/c) = ad/bc.) Example 2: How wide is a rectangular strip of land with length 3/4 mi and area 1/2 square mi? Example 3: How many 2 1/4-foot pieces can be cut from a 15 1/2-foot board?
