2. Review
Multiply the following fractions.

3 4 2 2
1. 3 × 4 =¿ 2.4 × 5 =¿ 3. 5 × 4 =¿

2 3 2 3
4. 3 × 5 =¿ 5. 6 × 8 =¿

b. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
Present each problem to the class.
Problem A

5 1
A m wire is to be cut into pieces Lito helps his father cutting it into meter long. How
6 12
many pieces can he cut from the wire?
Analyze the problem:
a) What is asked?
b) What facts are given?
c) What is the needed operation?
d) Write the equation.
Solution:
5 1
÷ =n
6 12
 5 12
÷ =n Write the reciprocal of the divisor
6 1

5 12
x =n Change the division sign into multiplication sign
6 1

5 12 60
x = multiply the numerators then the denominators
6 1 6
60 6
÷ = 10 Express in lowest term if necessary
6 6
5 1
Therefore ÷ = 10
6 12

Problem B. Using Reciprocal Method

Aling Juana has 4/5 hectare of farmland. She wants to plant it with 4 different ornamental
plants. How much land will she have for each plant?

We can solve the problem following these steps:

4
Step 1. Write thee number sentence. ÷ 4 =____
5
4 4
Step 2. Rename the whole number in fraction form ÷ = ___
5 1
Step 3. Get the reciprocal of the divisor then proceed to
4 1
Multiplication of fractions. x = ____
5 4
4 4 1
Step 4. Write the product of the numerators over the product ÷ =
20 4 5
of the denominators; and reduce the fractions if needed

5 5
cake to each of her friends. How many of her friends ate the cake?
2 8
2) How many 5 -meter long pieces can be cut from an 10 -meter ribbon?
3) 12 ÷ ¼
4) 6 ÷ 4/5
5) 3 ÷ 2/8
5. Summarizing the Lesson

To divide simple fraction:

a. Change the divisor to its reciprocal.
b. Change the division sign to multiplication sign.
c. Multiply the numerators then multiply the denominators.
d. Express in lowest terms if necessary.
To divide whole number and a fraction vice versa:
Step 1. Write thee number sentence.
Step 2. Rename the whole number in fraction form
Step 3. Get the reciprocal of the divisor then proceed to Multiplication of fractions.
Step 4. Write the product of the numerators over the product of the denominators; and
reduce the fractions if needed.
