Concepts

A recipe uses $2/3$ cup of oil, and you want to portion it into
$1/6$ -cup containers. Which question matches the setup
" $(2/3) \div (1/6)$ "?

How many $1/6$ -cup containers can be filled from $2/3$ cup?

If $2/3$ cup is split into $6$ equal containers, how much is in each?

What is $2/3$ of $1/6$ cup?

What is $1/6$ of $2/3$ cup?

Three friends share $3/4$ pound of trail mix equally. Which
division interpretation does this situation call for?

Measurement — how many $3/4$ -lb portions fit in some amount

Partitive — split $3/4$ lb into $3$ equal shares

Missing-factor — one side and the area of a rectangle are known

None of these; it is a multiplication problem

If $q \times (5/8) = 3/4$ , what is $q$ ? Enter your answer as a

Without computing an exact value, which of these expressions has a
quotient LARGER than its dividend?

$5 \div 2$

$5 \div 1$

$5 \div (1/2)$

$5 \div 10$

Procedures

Compute $(4/5) \div (2/3)$ .

$6/5$
