Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much cheddar cheese each person eats we have to divide the amount of cheddar cheese in the dip by the amount of people:


(1)/(4)\colon6

We can use KCF method:

Keep the first fraction

Change the division sign by a multiplication sign

Flip the second fraction:


(1)/(4)*(1)/(6)=(1)/(4*6)=(1)/(24)

Answer:

Each person eats 1/24 pound of cheddar cheese
