If Jake ate 1/6 of the cookies at the party and we know he ate 5 cookies. We must find out how many cookies there are in all.
Now x here represents how many total cookies are at the party.
We have to simply find out what 1 was multiplied by to get 5.
We can do this by dividing.
5 ÷ 1 = 5
So the numerators (the top numbers) were multiplied by 5. We can do the same to the denominators (the bottom numbers) to get the total number of cookies.
Lets multiply.
6 x 5 = 30
So the total number of cookies is 30
Good Luck! <3
