Question

Margot splits 8 cups of cereal into 5 equal portions. Three of these expressions give the number of cups in each portion. Which one does NOT?

Answer 1

1/8 of 5 is the one that doesn't

Explanation:

To figure out the solution you need to somehow divide 8 by 5 so

8/5, 1/5 x 8, 8 divided by 5 are all how you solve the solution.

1/8 of 5 is wrong because you do not need to divide 5 cups of cereal into 8 portions
