Answer:

1/6 gallon of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of hikers = 3

Quantity of water shared = 1/2 gallon of water

If the water was shared equally among the hikers, then,

Amount of water each hiker drank = Quantity of water shared ÷ Number of hikers

= 1/2 ÷ 3

Multiply 1/6 by the reciprocal of 3

The reciprocal of 3 = 1/3

1/2 ÷ 3

= 1/2 × 1/3

= (1 * 1) / (2 * 3)

= 1/6

Amount of water each hiker drank = 1/6 gallon of water
