Question

4Olivia is asked to multiply two fractions. She starts to model the problem but has not yet shaded the model. Which multiplication expression could Olivia be modeling? Circle all the correct answers. 5 A x B 1/2 x 1/2 c 1/3 x 2 D 1 x 1 С 2 X 3 E X 1 3.

Answer 1

A, C, D, and E

Step-by-step explanation

In this model, the rows represent fifths because they are divided into 5 equal columns, while the columns represent thirds because they are divided into 3 equal rows.

Therefore, this model is representing a multiplication between thirds and fifths. Of the options, all that multiply thirds and fifths - or in other words, all the products where the result of the denominator is 15, can be represented by the model.

Hence, the correct answers are A, C, D, and E
