Representemos la división de números enteros entre fracciones unitarias
Grado 5
Preparation
Lesson Purpose
The purpose of this lesson is for students to solve problems involving division of a whole number by a unit fraction and write equations to represent them.
Lesson Narrative
In the previous lesson, students solved problems involving division of a whole number by a unit fraction. In this lesson, students continue to find quotients of a whole number by a unit fraction. In this lesson, students find the value of expressions without being provided a tape diagram. The numbers are not large, so they may draw a diagram if it is helpful. In the second activity, students look simultaneously at expressions involving quotients of a whole number by a fraction and quotients of a fraction by a whole number.
