Given:
1/2 pounds of strawberries
5 wooden baskets.
Simply divide 1/2 pounds by 5. It can be solved using fractions or decimals.
Using fractions:
1/2 ÷ 5 → 1/2 ÷ 5/1
Rules in dividing fractions.
1) Get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction. 5/1 is the 2nd fraction, its reciprocal is 1/5
2) Multiply the 1st fraction with the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
1/2 * 1/5 = 1*1 / 2*5 = 1/10
Each wooden basket will have 1/10 pounds of strawberries.
If you solve it using decimals,
1/2 = 0.50
0.50 ÷ 5 = 0.10
0.10 is equivalent to 1/10 pounds.
