To find the number of members in the middle school band, we multiply the number of members in the high school band by the fraction 2/9.
502 * (2/9) = 111.55555555555556

To find out how much cake each member of the team will get, we need to divide the amount of cake by the number of members.
The team has 6 members, and they are sharing 3/4 of a cake equally.
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
(3/4) / (6/1) = (3/4) * (1/6) = 3/24 = 1/8
Therefore, each member of the team will get 1/8 of a cake.

To find the fraction of the assignment that Celeste's mom checked, we need to multiply the fraction of problems that Celeste completed by the fraction of the assignment that her mom checked.
5/6 * 2/3 = 10/18
The fraction 10/18 can be simplified to 5/9.
Therefore, Celeste's mom checked 5/9 of the assignment.
