Answer: ¹/₁₂ watermelon

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Parker had a watermelon which she cut into fourths and then gave one of those pieces to her children.

This means that she gave them 1/4 of a watermelon.

There are 3 children and they are to share this piece equally:

= 1/4 ÷ 3

= 1/4 * 1/3

= 1/12

<em>Each child will get 1/12 of the water melon. </em>

Divide use partial quotients 36 divided by 540

Blizzard [7]

Answer and explanation;

= 1/15 is the answer get when 36 is divided by 540 .

We can use the partial quotients to divide 540 by 36 then we get the reciprocal of the answer;

540 ÷ 36

We can take 360 ÷ 36 = 10

Then the remainder is ; 540 -360 = 180

But ; 180 ÷36 = 5

Then we get the sum of the quotients which is 10 +5 = 15

Thus; 540 ÷ 36 = 15

However; the question was 36 ÷ 540 , so we get the reciprocal of 15;

= 36 ÷ 540 = 1/15
