Tom has 5/6 pounds of raisins. He wants to make 10 snack bags for his class. How many pounds of raisins will each class member get?
(5/6) / 10
(5/6) * (1/10) = 5/60 = 1/12 pound
Thank u
You're welcome.
To find out how many pounds of raisins each class member will get, we need to divide the total amount of raisins by the number of snack bags.
Tom has 5/6 pounds of raisins, and he wants to make 10 snack bags.
To divide fractions, we need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
Reciprocal of 10 is 1/10, so we multiply 5/6 by 1/10.
(5/6) * (1/10) = 5/60 = 1/12
Therefore, each class member will get 1/12 pounds of raisins.
