Answer:

3/7

Explanation:

A team of 7 construction workers worked together to build 3 sheds in 10 days. How much of a shed did each of them build?

Number of workers = 7

Number of sheds = 3

7 workers built 3 sheds

let

x = number of shed each worker built

Number of sheds = Number of workers × number of shed each worker built

3 = 7 * x

3 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

3 / 7 = 7x / 7

3/7 = x

x = 3/7

x = number of shed each worker built = 3/7
