Dividing Fractions & Mixed Numbers What If… Mr. Williams had 4 pizzas and wanted to divide them in half. How many pieces would he have altogether? … 8 pieces What about 4 pizzas cut into 3rds… What about 4 pizzas cut into 4ths… What about 4 pizzas cut into 5ths… What about 4 pizzas cut into 6ths… 4 ÷ 1/3 = 12 pieces 4 ÷ 1/4 = 16 pieces 4 ÷ 1/5 = 20 pieces 4 ÷ 1/6 = 24 pieces
