First \(\frac{1}{2}\),
Second \(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ 4 parts,

Explanation:
I have divided first whole rectangle into
\(\frac{1}{2}\) parts then again I divided
\(\frac{1}{2}\) by 4 parts.

D. What fraction of your rectangle represents the quotient?
Answer:
\(\frac{1}{8}\),

Explanation:
The part of \(\frac{1}{8}\) of my rectangle
represents the quotient.

E. Interpret the quotient in the context of your word problem.
Answer:
p = \(\frac{1}{8}\) part of pizza for each friend,

Explanation:
Given word problem:
” A pizza of \(\frac{1}{2}\) has been distributed
among 4 friends how much part did each get?”,
So let each freind will get part p so p = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ 4
solving p = \(\frac{1}{2}\) X \(\frac{1}{4}\) =
\(\frac{1}{2 X 4}\) = \(\frac{1}{8}\),
therefore each friend will get p = \(\frac{1}{8}\) part of pizza.

“Billy has \(\frac{1}{3}\) of a pound of trail mix,
he want to share equally between himself and brother,
how much each will get?”. Upon solving
t = \(\frac{1}{3}\) ÷ 2 we get
t = \(\frac{1}{3}\) X \(\frac{1}{2}\),
t = \(\frac{1}{3 X 2}\),
t = \(\frac{1}{6}\), therefore each will get
\(\frac{1}{6}\) part of trail mix.

Turn and Talk Does it matter what visual model you use to find the quotient of a unit fraction divided by a whole number? Why might you choose one model over another? Explain.
Answer:
Yes, it matters,

Explanation:
Yes, it matters we use different visual model to find the quotient of a unit fraction divided by a whole number
Area model: In the area model fractions are represented as parts of an area or region.
Useful manipulatives include rectangular or circular fraction sets, pattern blocks, geoboards and tangrams.
Rectangular or circular sets can be used to develop the understanding that fractions are parts of a whole, to compare fractions, to generate equivalent fractions and to explore operations with fractions.  While the rectangular model is easier to draw precisely, the circular
model emphasizes the part-whole concept of fractions and the meaning of the relative size of a part to the whole.
Linear model: In the linear model lengths are compared instead of areas. Either number lines are
drawn and subdivided or physical materials are compared on the basis of length.
Useful manipulatives include Cuisenaire rods or fraction strips that are easily connected to ideas about
fractions on a number line.
Fraction strips can be used to explore equivalency, comparison of fractions, ordering fractions and number operations with fractions.
