17. a) (You must cut the line how many times?)
14. b) What number is the third part of 6? 2 14.  c) How much are two thirds of 6? 4 15. How do we find two thirds of any number? Name one third, then double it. 16. How much is two thirds of 15? 10 18? 12 12? 8 24? 16 9? 6 3? 2 17. a) Let this straight line represent 32, and divide it into fourths.
17. a) (You must cut the line how many times?)
17. b) What number is the fourth part of 32? 8 17. c) How much are three fourths of 32? 24 18 How do we find three fourths of any number? Name one fourth, then multiply by 3. 19. How much is three fourths of 20? 15 12? 9 8? 6 24? 18 16? 12 4? 3 20. How do we find any parts, plural? First name the part, "One." Then multiply. 21. How much is four fifths of 15? 12 10? 8 30? 24 45? 36 20? 16 5? 4 22. How much is

Halves, thirds, sixths. 24. b) Each number less than 6 is which part of 6, or which parts of 6? 1 is the sixth part of 6. 2 is two sixths, and also the third part, of 6. 3 is three sixths, and also half of 6. 4 is four sixths, and also two thirds, of 6. 5 is five sixths of 6.
