means the number of one-fourths
4 in one-half. Simple visualization
is required to find that one-half
contains two one-fourths. Let
children observe the patterns and
find their own ways of dividing a
fraction by another fraction.
• Conducting discussion with
children to observe and
generalise that to divide a
fraction by another fraction
(non-zero) can be done by
multiplying the dividend by
reciprocal of the divisor.
• Involving children in exploring
their own ways of writing
repeated multiplication in a
short form as repeated addition
is represented by multiplication.
With discussion let the children
reach to the conclusion of
writing repeated multiplication
in exponent form.
