Here's the equation: 6÷1/3
We need to make 6 an improper fraction. We will do this by simply putting a 1 under it (6/1). This is still the same value, just in fraction form.
Now, we divide.
When dividing fractions, we need to remember the rule: Keep, Change, Flip.
So, we KEEP 6/1
CHANGE to multiplication
and FLIP 1/3 to 3/1
Now, we have our problem:
6/1*3/1
This turns out as 18/1 which can be simplified to 18.
This means he has 18 pieces
