For question 1A. each mug will be 1/9 because 4/9 divide by 4 is 1/9B. 3/9 or 1/3 because 1/9 times 3 is 3/9

For question 2 5/6 divide by 4 equals 5/24. So each plot would be 5/24 km squared. Multiply that by 3 and it would be 15/24. So the answer would be 15/24 km squared if i'm correct.

Hope i helped!!

For question 1 Garson pours 4/9 quarts of milk into 4 mugs. What you would do since 4/9 is filled you would divide how much cups you have and the total amount of milk which is 4 so

4 divided by 4 = 1/9

So, 1/9 quarts of milk was poured into each mug
