Question

The Marquez family has 4/5 pint of ice cream, if each family member is served 1/5 pint of ice cream, how many people will get ice cream?

Answer 1

Answer: 4 people

Step-by-step explanation:

4 times 1/5= 4/5

The 4 goes on top ( numerator ) and the 5 would go on the bottom ( denominator )

Also another way to solve this is to use decimal form.

4 times 0.2 ( 0.2=1/5 )= 0.8

Answer 2

4 people will get ice cream
