What children learn in Level 73
- Four students share 1 third of a pan of brownies. How much of the whole pan does each student get? Start by shading 1 third.
- Cut that part into 4 equal shares. To see their size, cut the whole pan the same way.
- Now the pan has 12 equal pieces, and each student gets 1 of them.
- Dividing by 4 makes each share smaller. So the answer must be less than 1 third, and 1 twelfth is.
