Question

James has 13. 7 ounces of trail mix. He shares the trail mix equally with his sister. How much trail mix does each person get?

6. 35 oz
6. 85 oz
7. 35 oz
7. 7 oz

Answer 1

Answer: 6.85 ounces

Explanation:

13.7 divide by 2 because he and his sister are sharing the trail mix.

13.7 = 2x6=12 so 13-12=1 and bring down the 7 so 2x8=16 17-16=11 so 2x5=10 11-10=1. But don't put 6.851 put 6.85 ounces.
