                                                                        1
            Example  :  Ankita had 16 balls. Of which       had to be given to her brother.
                                                                        4
                            How many balls should be given to his brother ?
                                      1
            Solution  :  Since       balls are to be given, divide the collection into 4 equal
                                      4

                            groups and pick one group. Divide 16 by 4.

                                         16 ÷ 4 = 4
                                   1
                           So,        of 16 is 4. She had to give 4 balls.
                                   4

                                                                                                            1
            Example  :  Pooja was carrying 9 mangoes, of which she dropped      . How
                                                                                                            3
                            many mangoes did she drop ?

                                        1
            Solution  :  To find     of a collection, divide it into 3 equal groups and pick
                                        3
                            one group. Divide 9 by 3.

                                   1
                           So,       of 9 is 3. She dropped 3 mangoes.
                                   3
