Consider 2 1/2 divided by 1/4 (a) write a real-world problem for the division.
(b) create a model or write an equation for the division
(c) find the quotient for the real-world problem in part (a). show your work or explain your reasoning

Jose has 2 1/2 pound of cand and wants to give each of his friends 1/4 pound bag, how many friends get a bag of candy.

2.5 = .25c    c= bags of candy

Jose can give 10 of his friends a 1/4 pound bag of candy

She can find 6 items before the store closes.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Create a model or write an equation for the situation.

The equation for the situation =

x items = 3/4 hour ÷ 1/8 hour

(b) Find the solution. Explain what you did.

1. It is 3/4 h before closing time at the grocery store.

1 hour = 60 minutes

3/4 hour = x

Cross Multiply

= 3/4 × 60 minutes

= 45 minutes.

This means the store closes in 45 minutes

We are also told in the question that: It takes about 1/8 h for Jane to find 1 item on her shopping list.
