Question

Matthew and his 3 siblings are weeding a flower bed with an area of 9 square yards. if they share the job equally, how many square yards of the flower bed will each child need to weed? use a tape diagram to show your thinking

Answer 1

Answer:

2.25 sq yards for each child

Step-by-step explanation:

Uhh, I can't really use a diagram.

Matthew is also one person, so instead of dividing 9 by 3, we would be dividing 9 by 4.

9/4=2.25 sq yards
