Description
Dividing unit fractions by whole numbers and division with whole numbers by unit fractions is the key to escape the pizza parlor. In this QUICK division with unit fractions online breakout, students are challenged to solve three puzzles with word problems requiring a firm grasp of division with unit fractions (5.NF.B.7). This escape room is automated by a Google Form™ (does NOT require Google Classroom™ or e-mail addresses), so there are no answers to check or clues to hide. Easily use this breakout for distance learning; it is easy to implement with virtually no prep, making it a great worksheet alternative!
What are Quick Escapes?
Our regular escape rooms take between 30-60 minutes on average to complete. Quick escapes should take 10-15 minutes for most students (please note that the time can vary on either end of this estimate based on factors such as proficiency of the standard, whether or not the teacher allows calculators, if the teacher requires students to complete the included student recording page, etc).Quick escapes focus in on specific standards to provide teachers with the opportunity to provide enrichment, review, or assessment of these skills. Quick escapes are perfect for bell ringers, early finishers, or when you find yourself with time to spare in your schedule. While we recommend our longer escape rooms to be completed in small groups, Quick Escapes are perfect for individual assessment or for working on with a partner.
Skills required to complete this online breakout:
- Solve real world problems involving the division of unit fractions by whole numbers

FAQ
- Do students need to have Gmail™ accounts? NO! Anyone with internet access and a tablet, computer, or even phone can complete the breakout.
- How long will this take? That is the hardest question as the answer varies depending on each classroom, student, or group. Most students will be able to complete this activity in under 15 minutes. You can allow 25 minutes to be safe. The form will not save student data, so if you are worried about your students not finishing on time, simply have them write their answers on scratch paper. They can then come back and quickly re-enter their answers and pick up where they left off. Some students with a firm grasp on the concepts covered in this escape room will be able to complete the puzzles very quickly (under 10 minutes), others will take longer.
- Will students have to search the web to figure out the puzzles? NO! All of the information needed will be provided in the Google Form™. The math in this activity is all standards-based.
