Fractions and division

To find i of a set, we divide the number into 3 equal parts.

i of 9 = 3 9-3 = 3

Write the answers only.

a 15*3 b£of15 c 24-3 d ^ of 24
e 18 * 3 f i of 18 g 30 - 3 hi of 30

Copy and complete these.
*5 = 6 d £ of =6

e ir of^=5 f i of =10 9 iof = 2 h of 0=20

Now try these.

a A of 24 = 6

How many minutes in:
a 1 hour b \ hour c \ hour d f hour

e \ hour f \ hour g ^ hour h ^ hour?

a Draw more lines like this one and divide them
into equal parts.
I- 12cm
4-of 12 cm \ of 12 cm \ of 12 cm \ of 12 cm

Try to show all fractions from \ to ^ on your lines.
