2)Usain bought 3 2/7 pounds of Ackee fruit. He shared 2 4/8 pounds with Mark and Alex. How many pounds of Ackee fruit did each person get?

Answer 1

1.) First you have to multiply $12.23 by 16 which gives you $195.68

2.) The first step is to divide 2 4/8 by 2 because there's two people sharing the fruit. The answer is "each person get's 1.25"
