5.NF.B.3 Interpret a fraction as division
Interpret a fraction as division of the numerator by the denominator (a/b = a / b). Solve word problems involving division of whole numbers leading to answers in the form of fractions or mixed numbers, e.g., by using visual fraction models or equations to represent the problem.
Why water teaches this standard well
Students split a fixed number of gallons of test solution evenly among several lab groups testing water samples, expressing each group's share as a fraction or mixed number of a gallon. Seeing division as a fraction here previews splitting a shared water budget in later rate problems.
