Answer 1

Answer:

1. 8 days

2. $\frac{1}{4}$ pound

3. $\frac{3}{28}$ grams

Step-by-step explanation:

For #1, we have to divide four by $\frac{1}{2}$ (or 0.5), because that's the amount he gives his dog a day. For #2, we have to divide $\frac{1}{2}$ by two, because it is being split into two separate containers (0.5 ÷ 2 = 0.25, or $\frac{1}{4}$). #3 is a bit tougher. You can first write it as $\frac{3}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{7}{1}$ (because $\frac{3}{4}$ of gold are being split among seven people), then rewrite this as $\frac{3}{4}$ · $\frac{1}{7}$. Three times one is three, four times seven is 28. So the final answer is $\frac{3}{28}$. Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions :)
