Question

Which value is equal to one fourth of 1360?

Answer 1

This question is asking you what number, when multiplied by 4, is equal to 1360. 

think of it like this: 

1/4 of 1360 = Some Number 

When you say "of" in mathematics, it has a very specific meaning. "Of" means that we will use multiplication or division to answer the question. 

So, one fourth OF 1360 means if you were to divide 1360 into 4 equal parts, what would be the value of one of them? 

1360 / 4 = 340 

So, 340 + 340 + 340 + 340 = 1360 and one of those 4 parts is 340, which is the answer.
