Answer:

1/6

Explanation:

We are told that:

Ernesto used 2/3 of a cup of frosting to decorate some cupcakes.

He divided all the frosting equally among 4 cupcakes.

The amount of frosting Ernesto used on each cupcake is calculated as:

2/3 cup ÷ 4 cupcakes

= 2/3 × 1/4

= 2/12

= 1/6 of 2/3cup of frosting was used on each cupcake
