Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Each member in the group that went to the candy store named  Sugar Shack

received a larger portion of a candy bar because each member in the group got  5/7 of a candy bar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so first I am a visual learner so I drew a picture! I started with Sweet Dreams. I drew 4 candy bars and split each candy bar in 6 pieces. Each friend got 1/6 of each candy bar. This means if someone went to Sweet Dreams they got a total of 4/6 of a candy bar. Which is equivalent to  2/3. I then converted that into a decimal which is about .66 and then I went on to Sugar Shack. I then drew 5 candy bars split in 7ths. Each person got a seventh out of each candy bar. This means they got a total of 5/7. I then converted that into a decimal which is about .714. Since .71 is greater than .66 that means people at Sugar Shack got a larger portion. Hope this helps!!! Good luck on the assignment!
