Mathematics - Fractions - Dividing fractions - How Many Halves?

Show 3 pizzas. 'How many half-pizza servings can you make from 3 whole pizzas?' Visually cut each pizza in half: 6 half-servings. That's 3 ÷ 1/2 = 6! Do 4 scenarios: 2 ÷ 1/4 (cut into quarters = 8), 1 ÷ 1/3 (= 3), 4 ÷ 1/2 (= 8). Key insight: dividing by a fraction gives a BIGGER number (more pieces
