Here are Elena’s diagrams for 2 x 1/2 = 1 and 6 x 1/3 = 2. Do you think these diagrams represent the equations? Explain or show your reasoning.
Use pattern blocks to represent each multiplication equation. Recall that a hexagon represents 1 whole.
3 x 1/6 = 1/2.
Do your best to draw with the line and shape tools or add a picture from the applet.
