Bryan buys 3 dolls for his sister for her birthday. If he uses 7/8

Question

of a roll of wrapping paper to wrap the dolls, how much paper did he use for each doll?(1 point)

Answer 1

To find out how much wrapping paper Bryan used for each doll, you can divide the total amount of wrapping paper he used by the number of dolls.

He used \( \frac{7}{8} \) of a roll of wrapping paper for 3 dolls.

To find the amount of paper used for each doll:

\[ \text{Amount of paper per doll} = \frac{\frac{7}{8}}{3} = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{24} \]

Thus, Bryan used \( \frac{7}{24} \) of a roll of wrapping paper for each doll.
