Each friend gets ? of a whole pie.

Respuesta :

Answer:

n= 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 ÷ 2

1/6×1/2=1/12

Two friends are sharing 1/6 of a pie. That's why it is 1/6 divided by 2. In fractions when you switch from division to multiplication, you switch the denominator and numerator, so 2/1 becomes 1/2. Then, you multiply 1/6 and 1/2. You end up with 1/12, so n= 1/12.

Each friend gets 1/12 of the pie.
