It is given that a restaurant had 1/9 of a pound of leftover food.

If two employees wanted to spill it so we need to divided it by 2, we ge


((1)/(9))/(2)\text{ pounds}
\text{Use }((a)/(b))/((c)/(d))=(a)/(b)*(d)/(c)


\frac{1}{9\text{ }}*(1)/(2)\text{ pound }


\frac{1}{18\text{ }}\text{ pound }

Each employee gets 1/18 pounds of food.
