Question

Two hikers stopped for a snack. They shared 23 of a pound of trail mix. If the hikers shared the trail mix equally, how much trail mix did each hiker get?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/46 pound of trail mix each

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of trail mix = 23 of a pound = 1/23

Number of hikers = 2

Since it is divided equally, (1/23)/2 = 1/46 pounds

Each hiker got 1/46 pound of trail mix each
