Question

Hi everyone! Could someone please help me with the following question? I’m more concerned of how to show my working out, so if you could include that please too in your answer, that would be awesome!

To how many people can I give 2/3 of a chocolate bar if I have 4 chocolate bars?

Thankyou!!:)

Answer 1

That's 4 divided by 2/3

4 ÷ (2/3) = 4 × (3/2) = (4/2)×3 = 2×3 = 6

Answer: 6

Answer 2

Explanation:

Since there are 4 bars, we divide this by the amount (2/3) to find the number of people.

4÷ 2/3

*2/3 gets flipped to become 3/2

4 x 3/2= 6

↓

4 got cancelled out by the denominator 2 to give us 2 (4/2=2)

So, 2 x 3= 6

Answer: 6 people
