Question

If 7 people share 17 muffins, how many does each person get? O 1023/7O 7/17O 1/2

Answer 1

2 3/7

Explanation:

Given that 7 people share 17 muffins.

To get how many muffins each person gets, divide the total number of muffins by the number of people.

`\begin{gathered} \text{ The number of muffins each person gets}=(17)/(7) \\ =2(3)/(7) \end{gathered}`

Each person gets 2 3/7 muffins.

The second option is correct.
