ANSWER:

1/12 of the cereal box

Explanation:

In this case we must divide the amount that we have, that is, half a box of cereal by the number of portions that are desired equal, that is, 6

Therefore, we are left with:


((1)/(2))/(6)=(1)/(2\cdot6)=(1)/(12)

That is, for each day, you will have to eat 1/12 of the cereal box
