If I Walk 5 miles and stop every one fifth of a miles, how many times did I stop?

Answer 1

This is a division problem. You are dividing the each mile by 1/5. Since there are 5 miles, you take 5 and divide by 1/5.

5 divided by 1/5

Keep the 5, change the division to multiplication, and flip the fraction.

Then you have 5 x 5 = 25
