The amount of candy that each of his 6 friends will get is 1/14 of a pound.
It is given in the question that James has 6 friends with those he has to share 1/2 pound of the candy.
We have to find the amount of candy each of his 6 friends gets.
We know that,
Total number of people among those the candy will be shared = James + 6 friends = 7 people
Total amount of candy with James = 1/2 pound
We know that,
Amount of candy each person gets = Total amount of candy/No. of people.
Hence,
Total amount of candy each person gets = (1/2) /7 =(1/2)*(1/7) = 1/14 of a pound.
