Question

There was one half of a pizza left. It was divided equally amongst 3 kids. What fraction of the pizza did each kid get?

Answer 1

one-sixth

multiply the numerator (2) by the number of kids (3) because you are accounting for the fraction of the whole pizza. By doing this you should get 3/6. divide the denominator by the number of kids (3/3) getting you to a value of 1, and replace the denominator, making the amount of pizza one-sixth.
