Ms. Rodriguez brought 10 oranges for afternoon snack that she needs to share evenly with the 15 players on her daughter's soccer team. Should she cut the oranges in halves, thirds, or quarters? Justify your answer.

i think she should cut it into thirds because if it is thirds they all get 2/3 evenly.
