Dividing Fractions Using Line Plots

Mr. Nerian introduces a lesson on dividing fractions using a line plot, focusing on dividing a whole number by a fraction. The video demonstrates setting up a line plot, dividing it into thirds, and grouping by 2/3 to solve the problem. The lesson concludes with a summary and a preview of future lessons.

What is the main learning objective of this lesson?

• To add fractions using a line plot

• To multiply fractions using a line plot

• To divide fractions using a line plot
