Question

PLSSSSSSSS HELP!!!!!!!!!​

Answer 1

Answer:

I do not agree with Jake.  Each neighbor will get $\frac{5}{3}or1\frac{2}{3}not\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Jake has baked 5 cherry pies total and he wants to share them equally with 3 neighbors, the operation is division:

$\frac{pies}{neighbors}=\frac{5}{3}=1\frac{2}{3}$

So, each neighbor would receive $1\frac{2}{3}$ pies, not $\frac{3}{5}$.

Likely, what Jake did wrong is switch the numerator and denominator in his fraction.
