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 3 equal parts, each part is 1/3. Looking at the fraction wall, we can see that 2 pieces of 1/6 (which is 2/6) equals 1/3.

Solution Steps

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

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

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