Answer:

Each student will get 1/6 liters of soda.

Explanation:

In order to do this, we need to divide 1/2 by 3.

All we had to do is multiply 2 by 3.

1/6 is smaller than 1/2, and because 6 is 2 x 3, it's 3 times smaller, or less.

Therefore, each student will get 1/6 liters of soda.

Hope this helps! :D
