Answer:
1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
5 people have 1/2 of a pizza to share among themselves. They all want an equal portion, so we have to divide 1/2 by 5 in order to determine what fraction of the pizza they will all get.
1/2 / 5 = 1/10
To get this, remember the rule when dividing fractions. Change the second number to be a reciprocal of itself (flip the top number to be the bottom number, and vice versa) and then multiply the two fractions together. 5 is the same thing as 5/1, so the reciprocal of 5/1 is 1/5. To multiply two fractions, multiply the top numbers and the bottom numbers separately.
1/2 * 1/5 = 1/10
Hope this helps.
