A factory uses 1/6 of a barrel of raisins in each batch of granola bars. Yesterday, the factory used 1/2 of a barrel of raisins. How many batches of granola bars did the factory make yesterday?

1/6 = 1 batch, 2/6 = 2 batches and so on

if the factory used 1/2, the factory used 3/6 of a barrel, which equals to 3 batches.

hope it helps :)
