Answer:

Look down!!

Explanation:

A construction company is building a fence that is 2/3 miles long.They can build 1/6 mile of the fence every hour. How many hours will it take them to complete the fence? You can draw a picture to represent the problem. You can also use a division equation: (2/3)/(1/6).Think: How many 1/6's are in (2/3) ?(2/3) / (1/6)=2/3*6/1=4 It will take 4 hours for the company to build the fence. Suppose the length of the fence was 1 1/3 miles.

Hope this helps!!
