Question

One teacher wants to give each student 1/3 of a slice of pizza. If the teacher has 2 slices of pizza, than how many students will she be able to hand out pizza to?

Answer 1

6 students.

Explanation:

That would be '2 divided by 1/3' students.

2 / 1/3

= 2 * 3/1

= 6.

Answer 2

6

Explanation:

If there was 1 slice, then she would be able to only give it to 3 students (
`(1)/((1)/(3) )`=3).

We multiply the answer by 2 to get 6.
