Question

If “a” chocolates are distributed amongst “b” students equally, then what is the share of chocolates obtained by each student?

• A. $a+b$
• B. $\frac{b}{a}$
• C. $\frac{a}{b}$
• D. $a-b$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$\frac{a}{b}$

Since “a” chocolates are distributed amongst “b” students, this can be understood as – “a” chocolates are divided amongst “b” students, and so, the share of each student would be “a” divided by “b” i.e. $\frac{a}{b}$.
