A chef has 5 blocks of butter. Each block weighs 1 pound.
She cuts each block into fourths. How many \(\frac{1}{4}\)-pound pieces of butter does the chef have?

First, draw rectangles to represent the blocks of butter.

Then, divide each rectangle into fourths.

Finally, multiply the number of fourths in each block by the number of blocks.

So, the chef has ______ one-fourth-pound pieces of butter.

What if the chef had 3 blocks of butter and cut the blocks into thirds? How many \(\frac{1}{3}\)-pound pieces of butter would the chef have?

Jason has 2 pizzas that he cuts into fourths. How many \(\frac{1}{4}\)-size pizza slices does he have?
