Question

Matías compró un cuarto kilogramo de jamón y lo utilizó para hacer tres tortas así No sobró y a cada torta le puso la misma cantidad de jamón cuánto le tocó a cada torta

Answer 1

The amount of ham in each cake = 1/12 kg

Question:

Matías bought a quarter kilogram of ham and used it to make three cakes like that. There was no leftover and he put the same amount of ham in each cake, how much he touched in each cake.

Explanation:

Matías bought = 1/4 kilogram of ham

1/4 kilogram of ham = 3 cakes

There was no remainder

the same amount of ham is in each cake.

To find the amount of ham in each cake, we need to know the fraction of ham in each cake.

Since 3cakes = 1/4kg

1cake = (1/4kg×1cake)/3cakes

= 1/4kg ÷ 3 = 1/4 × 1/3

The fraction of ham in each cake = 1/12

The amount of ham in each cake = 1/12 kg
