Question

Your bird feeder holds 3⁄4 quarts of birdseed. Your scoop holds 3⁄8 of a cup. How many scoops of birdseed will fill the feeder?

Answer 1

First, let's create an equation for this problem. 
$\frac{3}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{8}$

Next, since you are dividing, you would flip the second fraction and change it to multiplication. 
$\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{8}{3}$

Now, you would cross simplify it (you can also do this at the end instead, but this way is easier).
$\frac{1}{1}$ × $\frac{2}{1}$ 

The last step would be to solve it. 
$\frac{1}{1}$ × $\frac{2}{1}$  = $\frac{2}{1}$ = 2

You would need 2 scoops of birdseed to fill the feeder. 

I hope this helps!
