Fraction Multiplication with Area Models

What is the main problem being solved in this video?

• Dividing fractions using number lines

• Subtracting fractions using pie charts

• Multiplying fractions using area models

• Adding fractions using area models

What does the whole rectangle in the area model represent?

• A fraction

• A decimal

• The number one

• A percentage

How is the fraction 1/3 represented in the area model?

• By shading one out of three vertical sections

• By shading two out of three vertical sections

• By shading one out of four horizontal sections

• By shading three out of four horizontal sections

What is the next step after shading 1/3 of the model?

• Finding 1/2 of the shaded section

• Finding 1/4 of the shaded section

• Finding 3/4 of the shaded section

• Finding 2/3 of the shaded section

How many equal parts is the shaded 1/3 section divided into?

• Five

• Two

• Three

• Four

How many parts of the divided 1/3 section are shaded to represent 3/4?

• Four

• One

• Two

• Three

What is the numerator of the product 3/4 times 1/3?

• One

• Four

• Two

• Three

What is the denominator of the product 3/4 times 1/3?

• Fifteen

• Twelve

• Nine

• Six

What is the final product of 3/4 times 1/3?

• 3/12

• 3/4

• 1/3

• 1/4

Why does the model prove that 3/4 times 1/3 is 3/12?

• Because it shows 4 out of 9 sections are shaded twice

• Because it shows 3 out of 12 sections are shaded twice

• Because it shows 4 out of 12 sections are shaded twice

• Because it shows 3 out of 9 sections are shaded twice
