4 friends have 5 chocolates and they want to share equally.

an .8 of a chocolate for 4 friend

sorry.

5 chocolates for 4 friends is

5/4 choc/friend

Think about it -- more chocolates than friends means more than 1 choco per friend.

5choc./4friends = 1 1/4 choc. each

To share the chocolates equally among the 4 friends, you would follow these steps:

Step 1: Determine the total number of chocolates. In this case, there are 5 chocolates.

Step 2: Divide the total number of chocolates by the number of friends. Since there are 4 friends, you divide 5 chocolates by 4 friends.

Step 3: Calculate the quotient and remainder. The quotient is the number of chocolates each friend will get equally, and the remainder (if any) is the extra chocolates left over.

In this case, when you divide 5 chocolates by 4 friends, the quotient is 1 chocolate each with 1 chocolate remaining. Therefore, each friend will get 1 chocolate, and there will be 1 chocolate left over.

So, each friend will get 1 chocolate, and there will be 1 chocolate left over that can either be shared or consumed by one of the friends if they agree.
