Answer 1

Answer:

$1 \frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Jason has 5 Zucchinis.

           Jason want to share Zucchinis equally among three of his neighbour.

Now, find the share of each neighbour out of 5 zucchinis

As given zucchini is divided equally.

Share of each neibour= $\frac{Total\ zucchinis}{number\ of\ neighbour}$

∴ Share of each neibour= $\frac{5}{3}$

next converting the improper fraction into mixed fraction.

If we divide 5 by 3 we get quotient as 1 and remainder as 2

∴ share for each neighbour will be $1\frac{2}{3}$

Hence, each neighbour of Jason will be $1\frac{2}{3}$
