Each friend should receive pounds,  two equivalent fractions = ,  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Kalvin and 4 of his friends want to share 4 pounds of peanut butter equally.

Question asked:

Write an expression to show what fraction of the peanut butter each friend should receive. Then write 2 equivalent fractions for this amount.

Solution:

Kalvin and 4 of his friends that means there are total 5 persons:

By unitary method:

5 friends receive amount of peanut butter in pound = 4

1 friend receives amount of peanut butter in pound =

Thus, each friend should receive   pound of the peanut butter.

Now, we will find two equivalent fractions for this amount:-

Multiplying both numerator and denominator by 2

Multiplying both numerator and denominator by 3

Thus, two equivalent fractions for this amount are ,  .
