Casey cuts a 2-pound melon into two pieces and puts each piece on a plate.

Does that mean the weight of the pieces on each plate is 1 pound?

Yes, because each plate has 1 part of the melon.


No, because the pieces of the melon are not the same size.


Yes, because 2 ÷ 2 = 1.


No, because 2 parts of a melon weigh more than 1 whole melon.
