#4 There is 3/4 pound of paper clips to share equally with 5 employees. What amount of paperclips will each employee receive? (total = how many in each group = groups)

Respuesta :

the total amount of paper clip is 3/4 pound

if 3/4 pound is to be shared equally with 5 employee

then 3/4 is divided by 5

when you change the division to multiplication 5/1 becomes 1/5

[tex]\frac{3}{4}\times\frac{1}{5}\text{ = }\frac{3\times1}{4\times5}=\text{ }\frac{3}{20}[/tex]

so each of the 5 employee receives 3/20 pound of the paper clips
