Answer:
Both equations represent same quantity.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that solves the equation \(3\times 5=15\) by writing and solving \(\frac{15}{5}=3\).
Nate's method works as both equation represent same quantity, which is 3 groups of 5 with a total of 15.
We can convert either of the given equation into other as:
\(\frac{15}{5}\times 5=3\times 5\)
\(15=3\times 5\)
\(3=\frac{15}{5}\)
Therefore, both equations represent same quantity.
