Write a real word problem that involves dividing a decimal by a whole number

Mathematics

There is 75% of a pizza and there are 3 siblings who want to eat it for lunch. They divide what they have of the pizza evenly among themselves. In terms of a whole pizza, what percent did each sibling get.

This question would mean dividing 75% or .75 by 3 which would mean each person got 25% or .25 of what would be a whole pizza.
So while each person would get .33 of the current sized pizza (.75) in terms of a whole pizza it would be .25

I hope this makes sense! Sorry if I over explained it.

To turn a decimal into a fraction move the decimal point two spots over (Ex: 0.34=34%). To turn a fraction into a decimal get the denominator to 100 by multiplying both the top and bottom by whatever number needed (must both be multiplied by the same number) or divide to top number into the bottom number of you can’t multiply.

5(2/5) how to solve it?
mina [271]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve. Technically, there are two methods. You can first multiply, or first divide.

Essentially the question is:

(5 * 2)/5

or

2 * (5/5)

Solve. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First solve the parenthesis, then simplify:

(5 * 2)/5 = (10)/5 = 2

2 * (5/5) = 2 * 1 = 2

2 is your answer.
