Question

1/3:1/2::_____:1 fill in the blank​

Answer 1

Answer:

Visualizing having one whole pizza.

Mark it into two sections. Each sections the same amount of pizza.

1/3 of 1/2 means take one of the sections called 1/2 of the pizza and mark it into three equal sections.

The other section called 1/2 can also be marked into three equal sections.

That will produce 6 smaller sections of the whole pizza.

Look at the one of the half of the pizza.

One of the three slices of 1/2 of the pizza is 1/3 of 1/2 of the pizza.

Look at the whole pizza. Isn’t the 1/3 of 1/2 = 1/6 of the whole pizza.

1/3(1/2) = 1/6
