Your difficulty is part of why arithmetic is useful for computing with numerals written in digits.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You want to cut \"3%2F5\" of a pie into 5 equal pieces. This could still be done using a drawing. You want \"3%2F5\" DIVIDED BY \"5\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This is the same as \"%283%2F5%29%2F5\";
\n" ); document.write( "which is
\n" ); document.write( "\"%283%2F5%29%281%2F5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%2F%285%2A5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%283%2F25%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you want to try using a drawing or picture, use a rectangle or a square; instead of a circular pie-shaped drawing. Forming a grid to represent the number will be much easier for this kind of situation.
