Question

A monkey ate 4 1/2 lbs of bananas a week. If it was fed the same amount daily, how much did it eat each day?

Answer 1

It ate 9/14 each day

You would make 4 ½ into an improper fraction and divide it by how many days are in a week, which is 7.

9/2 ÷ 7

Change it to a multiplication problem and make 7 a fraction and flip it

9/2 × 1/7

Now multiply across

9/14 is your answer

Hope this helps!!
