Nathalie has one large bowl of popcorn. She invite 3 friends over to watch a movie. Her brother takes 1/5 of the popcorn for him

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Each friend gets $\frac{1}{5}$ of the popcorns.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nathalie's brother takes 1/5 of the popcorn for himself.

so there is ( 1 - 1/5)

= 4/5 of the popcorns left in the bowl

including Nathalie and her 3 friends, there are (3 + 1) = 4 persons.

So, each friend gets

$\frac(4}{4 \times 5}$

= $\frac{1}{5}$

of the popcorns
