PRESENTATION OF THE LESSON

Mon is helping his father in


their carpentry shop. They
have 2 meters of wood which
they will use to make frames.
If each frame will be 2/3 m
long, how many frames will
they be able to make?
PRESENTATION OF THE LESSON
Analyze the problem.
 What is asked?
 What facts are given?
 What is the needed
operation?
 Write an equation for the
problem.
What is asked?
How many frames will
they be able to make?

The number of frames they


can make.
What are the given facts?
2 meters—length of the
wood
2/3 meter– length of
wood for every frame
What is the operation to be used?
Division
Because we need to cut the
2 meters into pieces with
equal length
which is 2/3 meters each
piece
Write an equation for the problem.

Using the Reciprocal Method
A. Let the pupils make a
multiplication equation which will give
the same answer as the division
equation.
 2 ÷ 2/3 = 3
 2 x 3/2 = 6/2 or 3

Each bead is 3/10 centimetre long.
How many beads are in a necklace
60 centimetres long?
2. Lorna braids strips of cloth into
rugs. How many strips, each ¾
centimeter wide, can she cut from a
material that is 54 centimetres wide?
Generalization

How do we
divide whole
number by a
fraction?
Generalization

If the dividend is a
whole number, change
it to a fraction with a
denominator of 1.
Generalization

Multiply the
dividend by the
reciprocal of the
divisor.
