There are 12 baby rabbits at the pet store. The manager lets Gabriella feed vegetables to the rabbits as treats. She has 5 1/4 ounces of parsley today. She wants to give each rabbit the same amount. How much parsley does each rabbit get?
5 (1/4) / 12
(21/4) * (1/12) = 21/48 = 7/16 ounce for each rabbit

You do 12 divided by 5 1/4 to get 48/21 which is equivalent to 2 6/21 which is your answer. 2 6/21 parsley for each.
21/21
To find out how much parsley each rabbit gets, you need to divide the total amount of parsley by the number of rabbits. In this case, Gabriella has 5 1/4 ounces of parsley, and there are 12 baby rabbits.
First, you need to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction. The whole number, 5, can be written as a fraction by putting it over 1, so 5/1. Then, add the fraction 1/4 to the whole number: 5/1 + 1/4 = 20/4 + 1/4 = 21/4.
Now, you can divide the total amount of parsley (21/4 ounces) by the number of rabbits (12). To divide fractions, you need to multiply the dividend (21/4) by the reciprocal of the divisor (12), which is 1/12.
(21/4) รท 12 = (21/4) x (1/12)
When you multiply the numerators (21 x 1) and the denominators (4 x 12), you get:
21/4 x 1/12 = 21/48
So, each rabbit will get 21/48 ounces of parsley.
