Question

Andi has 8 pounds of chocolate. If she wants to give each of her friends 1/3 of a pound of chocolate, how many friends can receive chocolate?

Answer 1

24

Explanation:

So basically for every 1 pound of chocolate 3 friends can get 1/3 pounds

now you want to find out how many for 8 pounds

You simply multiply the amount of friends for 1 pound (3) by the total amount he can distribute (8)

you get 24
