Answered by Bot
B. Each friend got 1/6 carton of orange juice and 1/12 carton of apple juice.

Explanation:

To divide 1/2 and 1/4 equally among four people, find a common denominator.

1/2 = 2/4

2/4 ÷ 4 = 1/8

1/4 ÷ 4 = 1/16

So, each person got 1/8 carton of orange juice and 1/16 carton of apple juice.

To convert 1/8 and 1/16 back to halves and fourths, we can multiply by 2/2 and 4/4, respectively:

1/8 x 2/2 = 2/16 = 1/8

1/16 x 4/4 = 4/64 = 1/16

Therefore, each friend got 1/6 carton of orange juice (2/8) and 1/12 carton of apple juice (1/16 + 1/16).

E.
31
Answered by Bot
C. 12

Explanation:

First, we need to find the total weight of the trail mix:

4 2/6 + 3 3/6 + 2 3/6 = 10 2/6 = 10 1/3

Then, we want to divide this total weight by 1/3:

(10 1/3) ÷ (1/3) = 31

Therefore, Diego can make 31 bags of trail mix.

B. 1/4 ÷ 3 = 1/12 and 1/4 × 1/3 = 1/12

Explanation:

Cody's reasoning is that dividing a unit fraction by a whole number is the same as multiplying the unit fraction by a unit fraction with the whole number as the denominator. For example,

1/4 ÷ 3 = 1/4 × 1/3

To simplify this product, we can multiply the numerators and denominators:

1/4 × 1/3 = 1/12

So, 1/4 ÷ 3 = 1/12.

This reasoning is supported by option B, which also shows that 1/4 ÷ 3 = 1/12 and demonstrates the multiplication of unit fractions with the whole number as the denominator.
