If you can buy 1/3 of abox of chocolates for 6 dollars, how much can you purchase for 4 dollars write your answer as a fraction of a box

Answer 1

Answer: 2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

you can buy 1/3 of a box of chocolates for 6 dollars,

We have to find how much can you purchase for 4 dollars.

For $6 we can buy = 1/3 of a box

For $1 we can buy = 1/3 ÷ 6

For $4 we can buy = 1/18 × 4

1/18 x 4 = 4/18 ÷ 2/2 = 2/9

Therefore, 2/9 of a box of chocolate
