[MGSE.5.NF.7 Apply and extend previous understandings
of division to divide unit fractions by whole numbers and
whole numbers by unit fractions.
a. Interpret division of a unit fraction by a non-zero whole
number and compute such quotients. For example, create
a story context for (1/3) ÷ 4, and use a visual fraction
model to show the quotient. Use the relationship between
multiplication and division to explain that (1/3) ÷ 4 = 1/12
because (1/12) × 4 = 1/3.
b. Interpret division of a whole number by a unit fraction
and compute such quotients. For example, create a story
context for 4 ÷ (1/5), and use a visual fraction model to
show the quotient. Use the relationship between
multiplication and division to explain that 4 ÷ (1/5) = 20
because 20 × (1/5) = 4]
