Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Twenty gallons of primer are shared among 17 painting crews. A student says 17/20 because 20 × 17/20 = 17. Which option correctly fixes the quotient and the multiplication check?
AThe share is 17/20 gallon each; use 20 × 17/20 = 17
BThe share is 20/37 gallon each; use 37 × 20/37 = 20
CThe share is 20/17 gallon each; use 17 × 20/17 = 20
DThe share is 3/17 gallon each; use 17 × 3/17 = 3
Solution & Explanation:The amount being shared, 20, is the numerator, and the number of equal groups, 17, is the denominator. The correct check is 17 groups times 20/17, which totals 20.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Twenty-seven yards of cord are divided among 10 equipment bins. A student records 10/27 because 27 × 10/27 = 10. Which option correctly fixes the quotient and the multiplication check?
AThe share is 10/27 yard each; use 27 × 10/27 = 10
BThe share is 27/10 yard each; use 10 × 27/10 = 27
CThe share is 27/37 yard each; use 37 × 27/37 = 27
DThe share is 17/10 yard each; use 10 × 17/10 = 17
Solution & Explanation:The amount being shared, 27, is the numerator, and the number of equal groups, 10, is the denominator. The correct check is 10 groups times 27/10, which totals 27.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Sixteen strips of tickets are shared among 21 team envelopes. A student chooses 21/16 because 16 × 21/16 = 21. Which option correctly fixes the quotient and the multiplication check?

BThe share is 21/16 strip each; use 16 × 21/16 = 21
CThe share is 16/37 strip each; use 37 × 16/37 = 16
DThe share is 5/21 strip each; use 21 × 5/21 = 5
Solution & Explanation:The amount being shared, 16, is the numerator, and the number of equal groups, 21, is the denominator. The correct check is 21 groups times 16/21, which totals 16.
