Question

Explain how you would use fraction bars to find the quotient of 10/12Divided by 4/6 what is the quotient

Answer 1

5/4 I think but I’m not so sure

Answer 2

11/4

Explanation:

Draw one whole fraction bar. Next, draw 6 equal bars under it, since you are dividing by sixths. Then draw a twelfths fraction bar with 2 twelfths for each sixth bar. Above the twelfths bar, circle groups of 4 sixths. There is one group of 4/6 with 1/6 remaining. Since 1/6 is 1/4 of 4/6, the quotient is 1 1/4.
