Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1:
Weight of berries =$\frac{4}{5}$ pound
Number of containers = 3
Step 2:
Weight of berries in one container =$\frac{4}{5}$ ÷ 3 = $\frac{4}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{1}$
=$\frac{4}{5}$ × $\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{4}{15}$ pound
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1:
Weight of soap =$\frac{6}{7}$ pound
Number of pieces = 4
Step 2:
Weight of each piece of soap =$\frac{6}{7}$ ÷ 4 =$\frac{6}{7}$ ÷ $\frac{4}{1}$
=$\frac{6}{7}$ × $\frac{1}{4}$ =$\frac{3}{14}$ pound
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1:
Weight of liquid protein =$\frac{1}{2}$ pound
Number of cell samples = 4
Step 2:
Liquid protein in each sample =$\frac{1}{2}$ ÷ 4 = $\frac{1}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{4}{1}$
=$\frac{1}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{4}$ =$\frac{1}{2}$ × $\frac{1}{4}$ =$\frac{1}{8}$ pound
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1:
Number of bags used in a day = 5
Number of bags used =$\frac{1}{4}$
Step 2:
The time the bag will last =$\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ 5 =$\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{5}{1}$
=$\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{1}{5}$ =$\frac{1}{20}$ of a day
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1:
Weight of salt =$\frac{1}{3}$ ounces
Number of servings = 3
Step 2:
Weight of salt per serving =$\frac{1}{3}$ ÷ 3 =$\frac{1}{3}$ ÷$\frac{3}{1}$
=$\frac{1}{3}$ × $\frac{1}{3}$ =$\frac{1}{9}$ ounce
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1:
Length of the lace =$\frac{4}{7}$ yard
Number of dancers = 4
Step 2:
Length of lace for each dancer =$\frac{4}{7}$ ÷ 4 =$\frac{4}{7}$ ÷ $\frac{4}{1}$
=$\frac{4}{7}$ × $\frac{1}{4}$ =$\frac{1}{7}$ yard
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1:
Paint used =$\frac{9}{10}$ can
Number of chairs = 6
Step 2:
Paint used per chair =$\frac{9}{10}$ ÷ 6 =$\frac{9}{10}$ ÷ $\frac{6}{1}$
=$\frac{9}{10}$ × $\frac{1}{6}$ =$\frac{3}{20}$ can
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1:
Quantity of medicine used =$\frac{5}{7}$ bottle
Number of patients = 10
Step 2:
Medicine per patient =$\frac{5}{7}$ ÷ 10 =$\frac{5}{7}$ ÷ $\frac{10}{1}$
=$\frac{5}{7}$ × $\frac{1}{10}$ =$\frac{1}{14}$ bottle
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1:
Number of bags for each batch = $\frac{1}{8}$
Number of bags used =$\frac{3}{4}$
Step 2:
Number of batches of cookies prepared
=$\frac{3}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{8}$
=$\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{8}{1}$ = $\frac{3}{1}$ × $\frac{2}{1}$
= $\frac{(3×2)}{(1×1)}$ = $\frac{6}{1}$ = 6 batches
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1:
Paint used = $\frac{5}{6}$ gallons
Number of classrooms = 5
Step 2:
Paint used per classroom = $\frac{5}{6}$ ÷ 5 = $\frac{5}{6}$ ÷ $\frac{5}{1}$
= $\frac{5}{6}$ × $\frac{1}{5}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$ × $\frac{1}{1}$
= $\frac{(1×1)}{(1×6)}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$ gallon
