Multiply.
16 * (5/8) = ?
idk mate
Thanks!
To determine how many sub sandwiches you need to give each of the 16 teens 5/8 of a sub sandwich, you will need to multiply the number of teens by the fraction of a sub sandwich each teen will receive.
First, find the total number of sub sandwiches required by multiplying the number of teens (16) by the fraction 5/8. Here's how you can calculate it:
16 teens * 5/8 sub sandwich = 80/8 sub sandwiches
Since 80/8 can be simplified to 10/1, you would need 10 whole sub sandwiches to provide each teen with 5/8 of a sub sandwich.
Therefore, you would need 10 sub sandwiches to distribute to the 16 teens, giving each of them 5/8 of a sub sandwich.
