Question

Explain how to compute 2 divide 1/4 using a measurement picture.

Answer 1

Here, in this case we'll have to compute (
`2/(1)/(4)`)

Let's assume a circle with area equals 1, now if it is dissected into 4 equal parts, then each part will be given by
`(1)/(4)`.

Now, repeating the same process over another circle with similar dimension, we'll get the same result.

Therefore, we'll have 8 such quadrants when we dissect two circles into four parts.

i.e.
`2/(1)/(4) = 8`
