Write a real world problem for 1 / 6 ÷ 4

here is one i came up with, There is 1/6 of a pizza left four friends are sharing it how much pizza does each friend get if they split it equally. hope this helps

Oh, sorry it's a fraction, I see.That's easy,

There was 1/6 of a pie left (or anything else) and it is split into 4 pieces. It is very simple.

One real-world problem that can be represented by the expression 1/6 ÷ 4 is dividing a cake among a group of friends. Imagine you have one cake that is divided into six equal parts, and you want to know how much cake each person would get if you were to share it among four friends equally.

To solve this problem, we need to perform the division operation 1/6 ÷ 4. Let's break down the steps to find the solution:

Step 1: Divide 1 by 6:
To divide a number by another, we need to divide the numerator by the denominator. In this case, the numerator is 1, and the denominator is 6. So, 1 ÷ 6 = 0.1667 (rounded to 4 decimal places).

Step 2: Divide the result from step 1 by 4:
Now, take the result from step 1, which is 0.1667, and divide it by 4. So, 0.1667 ÷ 4 = 0.0417 (rounded to 4 decimal places).

Therefore, if you were to share a cake divided into six equal parts among four friends, each person would get approximately 0.0417 (rounded to 4 decimal places) of the entire cake.

What does the '/' mean?

1/6 split into 4 pieces = 1/24 (barely a mouthful unless it was a gigantic pizza)
