Question

Explain how to write 5/3 as a product

Answer 1

You can make 5 into a fraction, 5/1, meaning there are 5 whole numbers, or simply just 5. You can use the unit fraction 1/3 to represent the 3 being the denominator.
When you mulitply fractions, you multiply straight across.

`(5)/(1) * (1)/(3) = (5)/(3)`
