Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.41 Interpret Fractions as Division skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Which final statement correctly summarizes the relationship between a fraction a/b and division for whole numbers a and b, with b not equal to 0?
Aa/b means a divided by b; a is the amount being shared and b is the number of equal shares
Ba/b means b divided by a; b is always shared first
Ca/b means a plus b; the fraction bar means add
Da/b means a divided by b only when a is less than b
Solution & Explanation:For all whole numbers a and b with b not equal to 0, the fraction a/b represents the quotient a divided by b. The denominator tells the number of equal shares.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Use the visual shown. Three wholes are divided into 12 equal shares. Which benchmark comparison best describes one share?
AOne share is 3/12, which equals 1/4 and is less than 1/2
BOne share is 12/3, which equals 4 and is greater than 1
COne share is 3/12, which equals 1/2
DOne share is 12/12, which equals 1
Solution & Explanation:The model shows 3 divided by 12, or 3/12. Since 3/12 simplifies to 1/4, one share is less than 1/2.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A coach divides 64 ounces of sports drink into 25 equal bottles. Write the ounces per bottle as an improper fraction.
Solution & Explanation:The amount in each bottle is 64 ounces divided by 25 bottles, written as 64/25 ounces.
