Answer:

the correct answer is C. 45

Explanation:

so 1/5 means there are 5 peice to make a whole...

so if you cut an apple into 5 parts, each slice of that apple is 1/5

so if you cut 9 apples into 5 slices its just multiplication...

5*9=45

**for my visual learners** in the parenthesis are groups of 5 sticks

( ///// ) **those are your apple slices** **now just do that exactly 9 times**

( ///// ) ( ///// ) ( ///// ) ( ///// ) ( ///// ) ( ///// ) ( ///// ) ( ///// ) ( ///// )

5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45

i really hope this helps <3
