6th grade Q1

Creating your own problems involving division of fractions can be a fun way to practice math! Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you come up with your own word problem:
 

Step 1: Choose your fractions

Start by picking two fractions: $\frac{1}{2}\text{ and }\frac{1}{8}$. These fractions will be part of your division problem:

Step 2: Set up a story

Now, create a story that fits the problem. Let's say that a baker has some milk for baking cakes. The question is: how many cakes can he bake with the milk he has?

Step 3: Write down your problem

Write your problem clearly, including the fractions you chose and the story.

A baker has $\frac{1}{2}$ of a bottle of milk. He needs $\frac{1}{8}$of a bottle for each cake. How many cakes can he make?

Step 4: Solve the problem
Before sharing your problem with others, make sure you solve it yourself. Show all your steps so you can explain it later.
