Question

A 66-meter garden row is divided into 44 equal-sized sections to plant onions.

Which equation shows how to find the number of meters in each section?

Answer 1

You may represent this multiple ways.

1. 66/44 = m

2. 44m = 66

In both of these scenarios you have a total and equal parts.

The first one starts with a total and breaks it into equal parts.

The second choice shows 44 groups of a part totaling 66 meters.
