Ivana has 3/4 pound of hamburger meat. She makes 3 hamburger patties. Each party weighs the same amount. How much does each hamburger patty weigh

If she wants to make identical patties, they have to all weight the same amount. Therefore, she must split the 3/4 pounds in three.

So you want to do 3/4 divided by 3 which is the same thing as (3/4) x (1/3)

You multiply the numerators and denominators and get 3/12

You then want to simplify and get 1/4 pounds
