Question

Angel and his 2 sisters shared 1/2 cup of baby carrots. How many cups did they each get?​

Answer 1

1/6 cup

Explanation:

1/2 is to be split evenly between 3 people (Angel and his 2 sisters) so our equation is

1/2 ÷ 3 = 1/6

So, they each get 1/6 cup of baby carrots

Answer 2

`(1)/(6)` cups each.

Explanation:

There is 1/2 of a cup of baby carrots available.

Angel and his 2 sisters would mean that there are 3 of them in all. Divide 1/2 with 3:

`((1)/(2))/(3) = (1)/(2) * (1)/(3)`

Multiply across:

`(1)/(2) * (1)/(3) = (1)/(6)`

Each person received
`(1)/(6)` of a cup.
