Question

After basketball practice, 8 players equally shared 3 water bottles of water. What fraction of a bottle did each player get?

Answer 1

3/8

Explanation:

You have three bottles and 8 players. You have to spread 3 bottles over 8 players. Here you get the fraction 3/8, or 3 over 8. This fraction is already simplified, which you know because 3 and 8 have no common factors. Thus you have your answer completed: 3/8.
