Why is the quotient larger than the dividend when dividing by a unit fraction?
Rules for dividing by a fraction are multiply by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of a unit fraction is a whole number. Multiplying by a whole number will make the answer (quotient) larger. ex unit fraction 1/a 7 divided by 1/a = 7 x a/1 = 7a .... a times larger than 7.
How does the quotient compare to the dividend when you divide a unit fraction by a whole number?
Rules for division -- invert the fractional divisor and multiply let 1 / k = a unit fraction where k is any counting number, let m = any whole number so 1 / k divided by m becomes 1 / k multiplied by 1 / m = 1 / (km) the result is a new unit fraction with denominator equal to the old denominator times the whole number.
