Answer:

  48

Step-by-step explanation:

(264 in)/(5.5 in/piece) = (264/5.5) pieces = 48 pieces

_____

Division is the usual shortcut for repeated subtraction. You could subtract 5.5 from 264 until you get to zero. You would have to do 48 subtractions. It is easier to divide 264 by 5.5 to see how many times it goes.

A 66-meter garden row is divided into 44 equal-sized sections to plant onions.
Gwar [14]
You may represent this multiple ways.

1. 66/44 = m

2. 44m = 66

In both of these scenarios you have a total and equal parts.

The first one starts with a total and breaks it into equal parts.

The second choice shows 44 groups of a part totaling 66 meters.
