Standard: 5.NF.B.7.C
Domain: Number & Operations - Fractions
Theme: Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions
Description: Solve real-world problems involving division of unit fractions by non-zero whole numbers and division of whole numbers by unit fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, how much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 1/3-cup servings are in 2 cups of raisins?
A beaker holds 1/10 of a liter of water. If the water is divided equally into 6 test tubes, how much water will be in each test tube?
1/60 liter
6/10 liter
1/6 liter
10/16 liter

Which situation could be represented by the following model?
The number of 1/8 lb. servings of cheese in 4 lbs. of cheese
Four friends share 8 lbs. of cheese
4 lbs. of cheese divided into 8 equal servings
