Question

A mother has $3$ chocolate bars. She wants to divide them equally among $5$ children. What fraction of the chocolate bar will each child get?

Answer 1

Total number of chocolate bars $=3$

Total number of children $=5$

Since, a fraction represents part of a whole object (or objects). Therefore, $3$ chocolates among $5$ children, in terms of fractions can be represented as $\frac{3}{5}$

Hence, each child will get $\frac{3}{5}$ portion of the chocolates
