There are 5 sandwiches and 10 students.

Each student would have to share the sandwich.

How many pieces will they be divided into?

If we divide each sandwich into 2 pieces then there will be 10 pieces.


2*5=10\: \text{pieces}

Since there are 10 students so each student will get one piece of sandwich.

Therefore, we need to divide each sandwich into 2 pieces so that the total number of pieces are 10.
