Jaime's family is eating leftover pizza for dinner. There are 1/3 of the pizza left over. If 6 people are eating, and they all received the same amount of pizza, what fractional amount of the whole pizza did each person receive?
Split the pie into thirds. Then split the third that is being observed into six pieces. Given that the other 2/3 can hold 12 slices, each person would have 1/18.
What you need to do is 1/3 divided by 6 and for that you put a 1 on top of the six and multiply it should look like this: 1/3 X 1/6 (which is the same thing as doing 3×6)
