Question

command 2: start at $\frac{1}{2}$. move $\frac{1}{6}$ to the right. choose a number line that shows how chip can move $\frac{1}{6}$ to the right. show sixths. rewrite the command to show how many sixths are in $\frac{1}{2}$. new command 2: start at $\frac{square}{6}$. move $\frac{1}{6}$ to the right.

Explanation:

Step1: Rewrite $\frac{1}{2}$ in terms of sixths.

We know that to rewrite $\frac{1}{2}$ with a denominator of 6, we use the rule $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{a\times k}{b\times k}$. Here, $b = 2$ and we want $b\times k=6$, so $k = 3$. Then $\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1\times3}{2\times3}=\frac{3}{6}$.
