Question

You have 4 chocolate bars to share evenly among you and your 2 sisters. Which equation describes this situation? 1: 3÷4=3/4, 2: 4÷3= 4/3, 3: 2÷4=2/4, and 4: 4÷2=4/2. Thank you!

Answer 1

Option 2 that is 4÷3= 4/3 is the right choice.

Explanation:

Given:

Chocolate bars to be shared evenly among you and your 2 sisters.

Number of chocolate bars = 4

No. of person to be distributed = 3

We have to find the equation which describes the situation:

To distribute them evenly (equally) we have to use division property.

That is,

⇒
`Distribution=(No.\ of\ chocolate\ bars)/(No.\ of\ persons)`

So,

Plugging the values.

⇒
`Distribution=(4)/(3)`

The equation which describes the above situation is equation 2 that is, 4÷3= 4/3.
