Question

Travis has 13 pieces of gum that he wants to share with his 2 friends. If Travis and his friends split the gum equally, how many pieces will they each get?

Answer 1

Answer:

Each friend will get 4 1/3 pieces of gum

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you would need to do 13 over 3 (13/3) and then simplify or divide 13 by 3.  

when you do the division you get 4.3333333, now you have to covert this to a fraction, and 4.33333333.... is equal to 4 1/3

I hope this helps!!

Answer 2

13 divide 2 equals 6.5
