Final answer:

To find the number of 1/4th sections in a half an apple, we can use fraction bars. By dividing the half into 2 equal sections and then dividing the shaded section into 1/4th sections, we find that there are 2 of these sections in the half an apple.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many 1/4th sections are in a half an apple, we can use fraction bars to model the division problem. First, we need to represent 1/2 using fraction bars.

We can divide the whole bar into 2 equal sections and shade 1 of those sections. Now, we need to divide the shaded section into 1/4th sections by dividing it into 4 equal subsections.

We can see that there are 2 of these 1/4th sections in the half an apple. So, the answer is 2.
