International Journal of Research in Education and Science, v3 n1 p258-279 Win 2017
It is well documented in literature that rational number is an important area of understanding in mathematics. Therefore, it follows that teachers and students need to have an understanding of rational number and related concepts such as fraction multiplication and division. This practitioner reference paper examines models that are important to elementary and middle school teachers and students in the learning and understanding of fraction multiplication and division.
