Question

Mrs. Salcido cut a small birthday cake into 6 equal pieces for 6 children one child was not hungry, so she gave the birthday boy a piece. draw and label a tape diagram to show how much each of the 5 children receive.

Answer 1

Answer: Answer below.

Explanation:

Because one child was not hungry and the cake was cut into 6 equal pieces, this mean one person got 2/6 or 1/3 of the cake and the rest got 1/6 other than the child who was not hungry. I can't draw this but you want to draw a child with 2 equal slices of the cake, one with no slices, and 4 more with 1/6 slices of the cake. Sorry I couldn't draw it, but hope this helps!
