Question

Six friends share 4 pears

Answer 1

Well, 6/ 4 = 1.5... But if you are looking for the fraction then you would do:  
SO what I got Was 1 1/2 this is why: :)



1. 1.5 = 1.5 / 1
Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 1 decimal places
we multiply top and bottom by 1 10's

2. Numerator: (N)
N = 1.5 × 10 = 15
Denominator: (D)
D = 1 × 10 = 10
N / D = 15 / 10
Then you want to simplify your fraction from 15/10 = 3/2 = 1  1 / 2 ! :)  

= 15/10

= 3/2

= 1  1/2

Answer 2

6/4=1.5

Each friend would gat 1 and 1/2 pears!
I hope this helps!
