How much will each person get if 4 people share 1/2 pound of grapes equally

Divide amount of grapes by number of people.

= 1/2 lb ÷ 4 people

to divide a fraction, multiply by the reciprocal (inverse)

= 1/2 * 1/4
= (1*1)/(2*4)
= 1/8 pound

ANSWER: Each of the 4 people will get 1/8 pound of grapes.

Hope this helps! :)

Hey there!

To solve this, divide the numbers 1/2 and 4 . . .

1/2 = 1/2

4 = 4/1

1 x 1 = 1

2 x 4 = 8

The fraction 1/8 is already in it's simplest form, so it does not need to be simplified.

1/8 pounds of grapes can be shared equally among the 4 friends.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!
