Answer 1

To divide 6 1/2 of flour into 4 bowls, you would need to find 6 1/2 divided by 4.

To divide fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. In this case, you would multiply 6 1/2 by 1/4.

First, convert 6 1/2 to an improper fraction:
6 1/2 = (2 * 6 + 1)/2 = 13/2

Now, multiply 13/2 by 1/4:
(13/2) * (1/4) = 13/8

So, there would be 13/8 of flour in each bowl.
