3
6

B

5
6

C

2
6

D

6

Answer 1

the answer would be c- 2/6

there are six cups total and three (blake plus two others) friends

there are two ways you can solve this…

1. by making groups
if you look at the picture, you can split it into three groups because that is the number of people, then count how many cups there are in one group which will be your numerator for the denominator six which is the total

2. simple division
divide the total number of cups buy the number of people which is 3
you get two and follow the same process above
