Question

Divide the stars into 3 equal groups. How many stars are in each group? 8 What is 13 of 9?

Answer 1

In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data

total stars = 9

equal groups = 3

stars per group = ?

1/3 of 9 = ?

Step 02:

stars per group = total stars / equal groups

stars per group = 9 / 3

stars per group = 3

1/3 of 9 = 1/3 * 9 = 9/3 = 3

The answer:

There are 3 stars per group.

1/3 of 9 is 3.
