1. Quantitative Reasoning · Apply and extend previous understandings of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions.1
- Dividing fractions (unit fractions): Interpret and compute division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole number (e.g. 1/3 ÷ 4 = 1/12); use visual models and the relationship between multiplication and division to explain the result
- Dividing unit fractions and whole numbers: Solve real-world problems involving division of unit fractions by whole numbers and whole numbers by unit fractions, using visual models and equations
2. Quantitative Reasoning · Interpret multiplication scaling (resizing), by:
- Multiplication as scaling: Interpret multiplication as scaling (resizing): compare the size of a product to a factor based on the size of the other factor without computing; explain the effect of multiplying by fractions greater than, equal to, or less than 1
