We can think of 3÷1/4 as the answer to the question " How many groups of 1/4 are in 3?" The tape diagram represents this situation. What is the answer to the question.A:12B:6C:9D:3

The length of the tape is 3 and it is divided into equal parts or groups. The length of each group is 1/4. This means that the number of groups in 3(the tape) would be
3÷1/4
We can hold 3 and flip the fraction, 1/4. If we flip 1/4, it becomes 4/1 and the division sign becomes multiplication. The expression would be
3 x 4/1 = 12
The correct option is A
