standard_description: Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.

Narrative
Students spin a spinner to get a denominator for their target fraction. They choose a fraction less than one with that denominator and estimate an angle measurement that is the target fraction amount of 180. (For example, if a student gives a target fraction of ⅚, they estimate when they think the angle is 150 degrees.) Then students use a protractor to find the exact measurement.
