rewrite this number sentence 50 1/2 divided by 1/4 using multiplication

This division question is asking how many 1/4 you can fit into 50 1/2.

We can fit 4 of them into 1 whole (4 x 1/4 = 1)

We can fit 8 of them into 2 wholes (8 x 1/4 = 2)

and so on.

But we have 50 1/2 wholes, so we would need 50 1/2 x 4.

The new number sentence is 50 1/2 x 4.
