A recipe uses 3/4 cup of oats. Which fraction represents the same amount?
Multiplying both the numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 2 gives 6/8, so the size of the fraction stays the same even though the numbers change.

One ribbon is 0.35 m long and another is 0.4 m long. Which ribbon is longer?
Write 0.4 as 0.40 so the place values line up. Forty hundredths is greater than thirty-five hundredths, so 0.4 m is the longer ribbon.

A rectangular box measures 5 cm by 3 cm by 4 cm. What is its volume?
Volume counts cubic units filling the box, so multiply length × width × height: 5 × 3 × 4 = 60 cm³. Square centimetres would describe area, not volume.

A pizza is called one-fourth only when the whole is divided in what way?
Fraction names describe equal partitions of one whole. If the four pieces are different sizes, one piece does not reliably represent one-fourth of the pizza.

When calculating 12.5 + 3.47 by hand, what should you align before adding?
Aligning the decimal points keeps ones with ones, tenths with tenths, and hundredths with hundredths. That preserves place value before each column is added.
