The fabric Katy has is 6 feet long. How many pieces of fabric can she cut from the 6 feet if she needs them to be 1/5 of a foot long each?

so divide 6 by 1/5

6 ÷ 1/5 = 6/1 ÷ 1/5 = 6/1 × 5/1 = 30/1 = 30

Therefore, you can make 30 pieces that are 1/5 of a foot long.

The story problem to represent 6 divided by 1/5 is given below:

Given that:

The expression "6 divided by 1/5" has to be converted to story problem.

Whenever division happens, that can be related to doing partitioning in real world story.

Since the division is by 1/5, we can make a sub story for that as if a thing (1) was divided or partitioned into 5 parts.

The story thus can be like:

There is a pie which is divided into  5 parts. There are 6 different kinds of cherries which are to be applied on each part of that pie such that all kinds of cherries are found on each parts of the pie. Find total partitions of all kinds of cherry.

To solve that problem, you will have to divide 6 cherries in each part of pie ie in 1/5 parts thus needing to do "6 divided by 1/5" which will result in answer of 30.
