Aboard is cut into 10 equal pieces. how many pieces together represent 3/5 of the board? explain how you arrived at your answer.

If you cut a board into 10 equal pieces each piece is 1/10 of the board

Let's change the 3/5 equation to see what this is /10
3/5 = 3*2 / 5*2 = 6 / 10
So this means that 3/5 of the board is 6 pieces

I’m pretty sure the * means multiplication. so, if you multiply 5*1, it would equal 5. they are basically are-writing 5x1 as 5*1. so they would be… 5 10152025303540455055
