Answer:

The answer is : Stephen uses 2 slices over the weekend.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Stephen buys a melon and divides it into 6 servings.

And she eats 1/3 melon over the weekend.

Which means she ate 1/3 of 6, so the value is :


(1)/(3) *6 = 2

Hence, Stephen uses 2 slices over the weekend.

Answer:
2 slices

Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the total number of servings is 6.
We also know that she ate
(1)/(3) of the servings during the weekend.

This means that we need to calculate

(1)/(3) of the total servings to know the amount she ate.

This is done as follows:
she ate =

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

Hope this helps:)
