Answer 1

If you are talking about 1/4 inches, there are four 1/4 inches in one inch. Tip about fractions, the bottom number, the denominator, will tell you how many parts to make a whole. So in you question, 4 is the denominator, and it take 4 parts to make 1 whole. Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The first step to find how many 1/4 inch segments are in 1 and 1/2 inches is to convert 1 and 1/2 into an improper fraction.
To do this, convert 1 into a fraction with the same denominator as 1/2, which is 2.
1 = 1/1
1/1 = 2/2
Now add 2/2, which is the same as 1, to 1/2.
2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2
So 1 and 1/2 = 3/2
Now multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 so you can see how many times 1/4 goes into the fraction equivalent to 1 and 1/2.
3/2 = 6/4
1/4 goes into 6/4 6 times, since the numerator of 1 goes into the numerator of 6 6 times.

So the answer is that 6 1/4 inch segments are in 1 and 1/2 inches.
