Question

which expression is equivalent to $\frac{1}{5} \times 15$? $15 div 5$ which numbers are equivalent to $15 div 5$? choose all the correct answers. 3 $\frac{15}{5}$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\frac{5}{15}$ 5

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate target expression

$\frac{1}{5} \times 15 = 3$

Step2: Evaluate $15 \div 5$

$15 \div 5 = 3$

Step3: Evaluate $\frac{15}{5}$

$\frac{15}{5} = 3$

Step4: Evaluate other options

$-\frac{1}{3} \approx -0.33$, $\frac{5}{15} = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.33$, $5=5$
---

(second question):

Step1: Calculate $15 \div 5$

$15 \div 5 = 3$

Step2: Evaluate each option

$3=3$, $\frac{15}{5}=3$, $-\frac{1}{3} \approx -0.33$, $\frac{5}{15} = \frac{1}{3} \approx 0.33$, $5=5$
