(Solve.) I have 1/10 of a pie left over. My sister and I plan to share it equally. What fraction of the pie will each of us get?​

Answer:

The answer is 1/20.

Explanation:

-When you want to share it equally, you must divide by 2, but only the denominator.

-This is because 1/10=0.1 and you would divide 0.1 by 2 and get 0.05.

-0.05 is equivalent to 1/20.

You would each get 1/20 of a pie.

Personally I think you should just buy another pie, because 1/20 is very little.

Explication:
Half of 1/10 is 1/20
