Question

How much fruit punk will each kid get if 4 kids share 6/7 of a gallon of fruit punch? Show your work. Which answer is correct?

7/24 of a gallon
3 3/7 gallons
4 2/3 gallons
3/14 of a gallon

Answer 1

3 3/7 gallons because if u multiply 4*6/7 u get 24/7 and if u divide 24 by 7 u get 3 with a remaider of 3 so the answer is 3 3/7

Answer 2

Divide the 6/7 of a gallon by 4

(6/7) ÷ 4
flip and multiply
(6/7) × (1/4) = 6/28
simplify
6/28 = 3/14 gallon for each kid
