Answer:

each person gets 2/3 of an orange!!

Explanation:

Barry has 3 friends. There are 2 oranges. We know each person cant get a orange fraction that is equal or greater to 1, because 2 is smaller than 3! So we take the 2 oranges and make it the numerator, or the number on top, and take the 3 friends and make them the denominator, or the number on the bottom!
