Yasmine is making party favors for her birthday party. She has 2/5 meter of yarn to makebracelets for 5 people. How much of a meter can Yasmine use for each bracelet?Write out the problem. Then create a model to represent the quotient.

Respuesta :

We know that Yasmine has 2/5 meters of yarn to make bracelets for 5 people.

This means that she will have to distribute the 2/5 meters to the 5 people. This can be written as:

[tex]\frac{2}{5}\div5[/tex]

And solving it, we get:

[tex]\frac{2}{5}\div5=\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{5}=\frac{2}{25}[/tex]

This means that Yasmine should use 2/25 of a meter for each bracelet.
