Question

4 teammates share 5 granola bars equally. Draw to show how much each person gets. Shade the amount that one person gets. Write the answer.

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

1 1/4 of a bar each (diagram attached).

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing 5 by 4, we see how many times 4 goes into 5. It goes 1 time, with 1 left over. This means 5 divided by 4 is 1 1/4. This is how much each teammate gets.

Answer 2

You have five candy bars to divide between four people, this means you can do 4/5 to see how much each person gets. Your answer will be 1 1/4. For your picture, you can draw 5 granola bars divided into quarters (1/4) and shade in 1 candy bar and a quarter of another.
