Answer:

"This model shows unit factions of 1/3 divided into 3 equal

parts. It represents the division expression 1/3 ÷ 3 , which has

a quotient of 1/9 . This quotient is not greater than the fraction that

is being divided by the whole number. Lee is correct.

Explanation:

The square is 1 unit.

The solid vertical lines divide the square into 3 equal parts, so each vertical triangle using only the sold lines equals 1/3.

Each vertical triangle is divided into 3 equal parts using the dashed lines.

That shows the division 1/3 / 3.

1/3 / 3 = 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

Each square is 1/9.

A fraction, 1/3, was divided by a whole number, 3, and the result is 1/9, which is smaller than the fraction.

Lee is correct.
