Question

The Kicking Cacti and the Sprinting Stingrays met in their town's annual kickball championship this year. They were so evenly matched that the game lasted 11 innings! The Stingrays had 3 pitchers, and each of them pitched for the same number of innings.
How long did each of the pitchers for the Stingrays pitch?

Answer 1

Answer:

11/3 = 3 2/3 innings

Step-by-step explanation:

3 pitchers = 11 innings

1 pitcher = x innings

in the first equation, divide both sides by 3 to get 1 pitcher on one side

1 pitcher = 11/3 innings = 3 2/3 innings
