We can think of \(3\div \frac14\) as the question “How many groups of \(\frac14\) are in 3?” Draw a tape diagram to represent this question. Then find the answer.
Problem 2
Describe how to draw a tape diagram to represent and answer \(3 \div \frac35 = {?}\) for a friend who was absent.
Problem 3
How many groups of \(\frac12\) day are in 1 week?
Write a multiplication equation or a division equation to represent the question.
Draw a tape diagram to show the relationship between the quantities and to answer the question. Use graph paper, if needed.
Problem 4
Diego said that the answer to the question “How many groups of \(\frac56\) are in 1?” is \(\frac 65\) (or \(1\frac15\)). Do you agree with him? Explain or show your reasoning.
