The object is to model fraction division by asking “How many are in one group?” It is a difficult concept to understand, but developing the model that shows one cup to a certain amount of container or one container to a certain amount of cup will illustrate the desired unit amount. Reviewing how to compute quotients of fractions may be needed. A good word problem involving division of fractions by fractions.
