Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

3 multiplied by 6 = 18

Here's the equation: 6÷1/3

We need to make 6 an improper fraction. We will do this by simply putting a 1 under it (6/1). This is still the same value, just in fraction form.

Now, we divide.

When dividing fractions, we need to remember the rule: Keep, Change, Flip.

So, we KEEP 6/1

CHANGE to multiplication

and FLIP 1/3 to 3/1

Now, we have our problem:

6/1*3/1

This turns out as 18/1 which can be simplified to 18.

This means he has 18 pieces

hope I helped.

have a great day!
