[] Dividend is the number being divided

[] Divisor is the number being divided into

Word problem:

I have 1/2 of a cake left over from my birthday party. If I want to share it with 3 friends, how much of the cake does everyone get?

Solving:

1/2 / 3


(1)/(2) * (1)/(3)


(1)/(6)

Everyone will get
(1)/(6) of the cake.

Have a nice day!

I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)
