Shame has 1/2 pound of cheese to make 4 sandwiches. He wants to use the same amount of cheese in each sandwich. What fraction of one pound of cheese will be used in each sandwich?

1/8 or 0.125 pounds of sandwich

Step-by-step explanation:

in this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of cheese in a pound cheeses used in each sandwich

This is a straightforward question. The total number or fraction of sandwich is what we want to get. now to get this, we simply divide whatever is in the total by 4.

this is mathematically equal to 1/2 divided by 4 = 0.5/4 = 0.125 or 1/8 pounds of sandwich

The fraction of one pound of cheese that will be used in each sandwich is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we note that the question relates to finding fractions.

To solve the question, we note that to divide a fraction by a number is equivalent to multiplying the denominator by the number as follows;

Since the amount of cheese to make 4 sandwiches = 1/2 pound

Therefore, to make each sandwich, Shame would require, 1/2 divided by 4

That is

The fraction of one pound of cheese that will be used in each sandwich = 1/8.

in simplified version   it would be x ≤-4

step-by-step explanation:

multiply each term in x ≤-4 by -1

6e14 is the answer.
