Grade 5 - Fractions - Divide a Whole Number by a Fraction Visualized

This video focuses on dividing whole numbers by fractions, emphasizing understanding over memorizing tricks like "keep, change, flip." The goal is to visualize how many times a fraction fits into a whole number.

For example, dividing 2 by 2/3 involves seeing how many groups of 2/3 can fit into 2, resulting in 3 groups. The video also tackles more complex cases, such as dividing 4 by 3/4, where the remainder is a fraction of the fraction itself. This approach helps students grasp the concept by breaking it down visually and step-by-step.
