Example Question #571 : How To Find The Part From The Whole

What is $\frac{1}{3}$ of ?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find a fraction of a whole, we will multiply the fraction by the whole number.

So, in the problem

$\frac{1}{3}$ of

We can write it like this

$\frac{1}{3} \cdot 45$

Now, we must write 45 as a fraction. We know that whole numbers can be written as fractions over 1. So, we get

$\frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{45}{1}$

Now, we multiply straight across. We get

$\frac{1 \cdot 45}{3 \cdot 1}$

$\frac{45}{3}$

Therefore, $\frac{1}{3}$ of is .

What is a quarter of ?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find a fraction of a whole, we will multiply the fraction by the whole number.

So, in the problem

a quarter of 68

we will first write a quarter as a fraction. We know a quarter is the same thing as $\frac{1}{4}$ .

So, we can write

$\frac{1}{4}$ of

Now, we can re-write it like this

$\frac{1}{4} \cdot 68$

Now, we must write 68 as a fraction. We know that whole numbers can be written as fractions over 1. So, we get

$\frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{68}{1}$

Now, we multiply straight across. We get

$\frac{1 \cdot 68}{4 \cdot 1}$

$\frac{68}{4}$

Therefore, $\frac{1}{4}$ of is .

If the number in the ones place is or less, we round down. When we round up, the number in the tens place increases by . The numbers to the right of the tens place become and the numbers to the left of the tens place stay the same. When we round down, the number in the tens place stays the same.
