Question

4 F David, Angie, and Hank have a total of 4 granola bars and 4 cereal bars to share. How many bars would each of them receive if they share them equally? 8/6 8/3 5 O 2

Answer 1

There are 3 people -- David, Angie, and Hank.

They have

4 granola bars

4 cereal bars

That's a total of 4 + 4 = 8 bars

Thus, 8 bars needs to be shared among 3 people.

We divide total number of bars by the total number of people to find how many each of them receive!

Thus,

`(8)/(3)`

Each person will receive 8/3rd bars.
