Answer 2

Answer: $\dfrac{1}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Five friends are going to share $\dfrac{1}{2}$ of a pizza.

Then by using the division operation (÷) , we have

The part of whole pizza will each friend eat = $\dfrac{1}{2}\div5$

[When we divide a fraction by a number , we flip the number to get the ts reciprocal and multiply it to the fraction.]

$=\dfrac{1}{2}\times\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{1}{10}$

Hence, the part of whole pizza will each friend eat =$\dfrac{1}{10}$
