Given:
Kaitlin buys 9/10 pound of orange slices. she eats 1/3 of them and divides the rest equally into 3 bags.
Determine the amount in each bag.
Solution:
In order to determine the amount in each bag, we simply take first ⅓ of 9/10 and then divide it by 3.
= (9/10)(⅓)
= 0.3
Divide 0.3 by 3
= 0.1 pounds
FInal answer:
Each bag contains 0.1 pounds of orange slices.
