Answer:
1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
So lets think of it like this:
The thing being distrubuted is 1/2.
Each of the 6 girls gets a piece of 1/2 equally.
So each girl gets 1/6 of the 1/2.
This can be though of as 1/2*1/6
To find the answer to this multipication problem, multiply the numerator by the numerator, and denominator by the denominator:
1*1
=
1
This is your new numerator.
2*6
=
12
This is your new denominator.
So combine the numerator and denominator:
1/12
This is the fraction of the bag each girl get!
Hope this helps!
