Question

20.) William cut two whole tomatoes into fourths.

What unit fraction describes each piece as
equation represents the total number of fourths
part of a whole tomato? What multiplication
shown in the picture? Write the solution as a
mixed number.

Answer 1

1 and 1/4

Explanation:

Each piece of tomato is a unit fraction of 1/4 of a whole tomato. The equation representing the total number of quarters of a whole tomato is 2 x (1/4) = 2/4. The multiplication shown in the image is 2 x (1/4) = 2/4. As a mixed number, this would be represented as 1 and 1/4.
