mr. Ramirez bought 1/4 lb of cashews he divided cashews equally among his three children how much did each child get

Hey!

So all you have to do for this question is divide the amount of cashews that he bought by how many children he has.

(1/4) / 3

Division of two fraction is the same thing as multiplying as its reciprocal.

(1/4) / (3/1)

(1/4) * (1/3)

1/12

So your answer is 1/12 pounds of cashews
