I took a handful of M&Ms. One third of them were red. What might my handful look like? How would a mathematician represent it?

Question

This is a fraction question. Can you please help me with this. Thank you.

Answer 1

It would look like a handful of candies, 1/3 of which were red.

If there were n M&Ms, then n/3 would be red.

thank you
