Question

Sahil had 5/2 cups of ice-cream in the freege. he share it equally with 3 friend. how much would each person get ?

Answer 1

To share equally with 3 friends ( and not forgetting Sahli himself too), we will divide the quantity by 4.

⇒ 5/2 cups ÷ 4

.

$\dfrac{5}{2} \div 4 = \dfrac{5}{2} \times \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{5}{8}$

.

Answer: Each person will get 5/8 cup of ice-cream.

Answer 2

$\frac{5}{2} \div 4 \\ = \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{8}$
