Common Core Unit Name: 6 – Operations with Whole Numbers, Fractions, and Decimals Polygons
Unit Number: 1
Enduring Understanding: Use the relationship between multiplication and division to understand and explain why the
procedures for dividing fractions make sense.
Standard
6.NS.1 Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and
solve word problems involving division of fractions by
fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and
equations to represent the problem.

Vocabulary
1. How will I determine the best way to set up a problem
based on the context of the problem?
2. How will I interpret what the quotient represents?
3. How will I recognize what is known or not known based
on the type of division needed (partitive—Total / # of
groups = size of groups—or quotative or
measurement—Total / size of group = # of groups)
model?
4. How can I create a story context using division of
fractions?
5. How can I use my knowledge of multiplication and
division to understand that they are inverse operations
regardless of the class of numbers?
1. How do I determine when it is appropriate to use the
standard algorithm when dividing?
