About this worksheet

What students practice

  • Students divide a whole number by a unit fraction, like 4 ÷ 1/5 = 20, using models and equations.
  • Students check a quotient by multiplying it by the unit fraction.
  • Students solve stories by finding how many unit-fraction servings fit in a whole amount.

How to use
