Answer: One- fourth piece of construction paper is received by each student.

Explanation:

Given: Mr. Johansen is cutting construction paper for an art project.

The number of students in the art project = 24

The number of pieces of construction paper = 6 pieces

When Mr. Johansen divides 6 pieces of construction paper in 24 students, the quantity of construction paper received by each student =
(6)/(24)=(1)/(4)\ \tex{piece}

One- fourth piece of construction paper is received by each student.
