Answer 2

12 teachers will get 1/2 sheets each

Explanation:

Noor bought 21 sheets of stickers

She gave 1/3 sheets to each 45 students

She wants to give teachers 1/2 of sheets

The question should be: how many teachers will she give

Total sheets=21

Students gets= 1/3 × 45

=45/3

=15 sheets

Remaining sheet= total sheets - students sheets

=21-15

=6 sheets

There are 6 sheets remaining for teachers

She wants to give 1/2 to each teacher

Then,

The number of teachers that will get =Remaining sheets ÷ each teacher's share

=6 ÷1/2

=6 × 2/1

=12 teachers

12 teachers will get 1/2 sheets each
