1 1 1
3 3 3
 There are 5 wholes. Each whole has 3
parts.

Each part is 1/3 of a whole.

How many 1/3s do you see in five wholes?

Dividend divisor quotient
5 ÷ 1/3 = n
(The dividend is a whole number. Rename 5 as a
fraction with a denominator of 1.)

5 X 3 = 15
1 1 1

(Multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the

divisor.)

Answer: Mrs. Ramos can use the rice for 15 meals.
