Tina has 1/4 of a cake. He divides it between his 6 friends. How much of the whole cake will each friend get?

As Tina only has 1/4 of a cake. For simplicity sake we can do the calculation with a whole cake and then multiply by four!

First it is stated that cake is divided into six pieces, giving us our first number.

So,

6 x 4 = 24

This means that each friend will get 1/24th of the whole cake.

1/4•6 = 1/24

Each friend will get 1/24 of the whole cake.
