Question

steve uses 8/9 gallons of paint to paint 4 bird houses. how many gallons of paint does he use for each birdhouse?

Answer 1

2/9 gallons each is your answer. This is because you have to divide the 8/9 between the four birdhouses, which is the same as dividing the 8 in the 8/9 by 4.
Hope this helps!

Answer 2

He uses 0.2 of the paint
