Visually Dividing Whole Numbers by Unit Fractions

The video tutorial explains how to divide whole numbers by fractions using visual aids. It starts with dividing 5 by 1/2, showing that it results in 10 pieces. The process is demonstrated on a number line, emphasizing that two halves make a whole. The tutorial then presents a second example, dividing 3 by 1/6, resulting in 18 pieces. The video uses visuals to help understand the concept of dividing whole numbers into fractional parts.
