How much will each person get if 4 people share 1/2 pound of graphes equally

Answer: The correct answer is 1/8 pound.

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem you are dividing one fraction by another. You are dividing 1/2 by 4/1.

When calculating this problem, you need to leave the first fraction as is, change the division sign to multiplication, and then use the reciprocal of the second fraction (flip it over).

By taking these steps, our equation is 1/2 x 1/4.

Next, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

1 x 1 = 1 and 2 x 4 = 8

Finally, put the fraction back together by putting the product of the numerator over the product of the denominator:

1/8

Our answer is that each of 4 people will get 1/8 pound of grapes.
