Question

13.

Three boxes of cereal are shared equally among
8 boys. What fraction of a box does each boy get?

Answer 1

3/8

Explanation:

We want to find out how much each person gets per box, so all we have to do is divide the three boxes by three and the 8 by three to get how much each person gets. When we do that, we get 3/8. Literally, that means each boy gets 3/8 of a box of cereal.
