Question

Ten pounds of rice are distributed equally into 6 bags to give out at the food bank. How many pounds are in each bag?

Answer 1

First of all you need to split 10 pounds into 6 which means 10/6 (10 divided by 6). Next, if you want your a mixed number it would be 1 4/6 = 1 2/3
If you want it as a decimal it would be 1.66. Round it if you need to! Hope that helped!!

Answer 2

10 / 6 = 5/3 = 1 2/3 lbs in each bag
