Question

One kilogram yam is cut into three equal pieces one of the pieces is halved what is the weight of this pieces

Answer 1

Concept:

Definition 1: A fraction is a unit of measurement that identifies the components of a whole.

Definition 2:A fraction is a number that symbolises a portion of a whole.

In general, the whole can be any particular thing or value, and the fraction might be a portion of any quantity out of it.

The top and bottom numbers of a fraction are explained by the fundamentals of fractions. The bottom number reflects the entire number of components, while the top number represents the number of chosen or coloured portions of the whole.

If a number must be divided into four parts, then x/4 is used to indicate the result. In this case, the fraction x/4 represents 1/4 of the number x. Thus, the fraction in this case is 1/4.

Answer 2

500/3

Explanation:

One kilogram yam is cut into 3 equal parts:

1 kilogram = 1000 grams

1/3rd part of 1000 grams = 1000/3

One of the 3 parts is halved:

      = (1000/3)(1/2)

      = 1000/6

      = 500/3

The weight of the piece = 500/3
