Question

A fisherman caught 15.45 kilograms of fish. He distributed the fish equally among his 5 family members. How many kilograms did each family member get?​

Answer 1

Given,

The total weight of the fish$\[ = 15.45{\rm{kg}}\]$

The number of family members$\[ = 5\]$

To find,

The amount of fish each member gets.

Solution,

Know that by using the unitary method one can find the amount of fish given to each member of the family.

Therefore,

$\[\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow \frac{{15.45}}{5}\\ \Rightarrow 3.09\end{array}\]$

Hence, the amount of fish each member gets is $\[3.09\]$kg.
