How many ounces are in 1/2 of 1/5 of a 10 - ounce block of cheese?
To find the answer, we need to perform the following calculations:
1/2 * 1/5 = 1/10
1/10 * 10 = 1
Therefore, 1/2 of 1/5 of a 10-ounce block of cheese is 1 ounce.
A group of 9 people won 1/5 of a $4, 500 prize. How much money did each person in the group win?

Therefore, each person in the group won $900.
wrong
Apologies for the confusion. To determine the amount of money each person in the group won, we need to divide the total prize money by the number of people in the group.
$4,500 / 9 = $500
Therefore, each person in the group won $500.
still wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it:
To find the amount of money each person won, we need to divide the total prize money by the number of people in the group.
1/5 * $4,500 = $900
Since there are 9 people in the group, we need to divide $900 by 9:
$900 / 9 = $100
Therefore, each person in the group won $100.
