Anne has saved 9 dollars for a new coat that is 1/6 as much money as she needs how much does the coat cost?

54 dollars total

9x6 = 54

9 = 1/6 of the total price.

6 sixths = 1.

Therefore, if we multiply that amount by 6, we'll have the full price.

9 * 6 = $54

This is a great example of inverse operations, by the way. Division and multiplication of the same value will cancel out just like addition and subtraction.

To express this in a comparison chart, just draw a block and label it 9 dollars.

Then draw 5 more blocks (for a total of 6) and label them as 54 blocks altogether.
