Question

If there are 6 serving in a 2/3 pound lb package of pound is in each serving

Answer 1

`\boxed{\math{(1)/(9)\text{ lb}}}`

Explanation:

`\text{Size of one serving} = \frac{\text{Total size}}{\text{No of servings}} = \frac{(2)/(3)\text{ lb}}{\text{6 servings}}\\\\\text{Change the 6 to a fraction and change divide to multiply}\\\\(2)/(3) / 6 = (2)/(3) * (1)/(6)`

`\text{Cancel the 2s}\\\\(2)/(3) * (1)/(6) = (1)/(3) * (1)/(3)\\\\\text{Multiply numerators and denominators}\\\\(1)/(3) * (1)/(3) = (1)/(9)\\\\\text{Each serving contains }\boxed{\mathbf{(1)/(9)\textbf{ lb}}}`
