These problems represent what fifth graders are
expected to be able to do in terms of computation
with fractions. Note that we dont expect fifth
graders to divide fractions by fractions. They
are, however, expected to be able to divide unit
fractions by whole numbers and vice versa, as
shown in the fourth equation. A unit fraction is a
fraction with 1 in the numerator (top number).
