Amanda has a piece of ribbon that is 1/4 had long. She wants to share the ribbon with 2 friends so that they can each wear a ribbon for breast cancer awareness month. If each of the 3 friends gets the same amount, how much ribbon will each person get?

Explanation:

Draw a rectangle. Then draw three vertical lines inside to split the rectangle into 4 equal pieces. Shade one of the pieces to represent 1/4.

Now draw 2 horizontal lines to split that 1/4 piece into three equal smaller pieces. You should end up with a 3 by 4 grid of small squares.  There are 3*4 = 12 small squares total.
