Question

Solve the division equation using the model. (1 point)

four wholes partitioned into four equal parts with the fraction one fourth in each part. Below is the equation four divided by one fourth equals blank
1. four sixteenths
2. one sixteenth
3. 16
4. 8

Answer 1

The answer to the division equation is 1/4 or 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 1/4. The whole is divided into four equal parts, each containing the fraction one fourth.

When we divide four by one fourth, we are essentially asking how many one fourths are there in four wholes.

Since each part is one fourth, there are four one fourths in one whole.

4 wholes can be represented as 4/1.

One fourth can be represented as 1/4.

Dividing 4/1 by 1/4 is the same as multiplying by 4.

4 × 4 = 16.

Therefore, four divided by one fourth equals 16.
