Explanation

The chapter shows through the fraction wall that when a whole is divided into 6 equal parts, each part is 1/6. When the same whole is divided into 2 equal parts, each part is 1/2. Looking at the fraction wall, we can see that 3 pieces of 1/6 (which is 3/6) equals 1/2.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: 1/2 = 3/6 (equivalent fraction)

  2. Step 2: 3/6 means 3 pieces of 1/6

  3. Step 3: So 3 pieces of 1/6 make 1/2
