Answer: 1/15 quarts

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Caleb and 2 friends are sharing 1/5 quart of milk equally.

The fraction of a quart of milk that each of the 3 friends get will be gotten by dividing the total quarts of milk by 3. This will be:

= 1/5 ÷ 3

= 1/5 × 1/3

= 1/15

Each person gets 1/15 quart of milk
