So 3/4 total and it takes 1/8 to make a bowl
how many bowls
3/4 divided by 1/8
(REMEMBER KEEP CHANGE FLIP WHEN DEALING WITH THE DIVISION OF FRACTIONS, means keep the first fraction, change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction)
3/4 * 8/1
that is 6
Leon can make 6 bowls of clay.

Hope this helps :)
