Question

William shares $5 fraction numerator 1 over denominator 4 end fraction$ pieces of cake between 7 people. What will be the share of each?

1
2
$\frac{1}{4}$
$\frac{3}{4}$

hint Hint:

A fraction has two parts. The number on the top of the line is called the numerator. It tells how many equal parts of the whole or collection are taken. The number below the line is called the denominator.

The correct answer is: $fraction numerator 3 over denominator 4 end fraction$

To know the share, we need to find $5 fraction numerator 1 over denominator 4 end fraction divided by 7$ .
$5 fraction numerator 1 over denominator 4 end fraction divided by 7 equals fraction numerator 21 over denominator 4 end fraction cross times fraction numerator 1 over denominator 7 end fraction equals fraction numerator 3 over denominator 4 end fraction$
