4. Rosa cut 5 watermelons in halves. She kept one of the halves and cut each of
the rest into 8 equal pieces.
a. How many smaller pieces were there?
b. What do you call each of the smaller pieces?
C.
What fraction will represent all of the small pieces?

Sagot :

a. There were a total of 20 smaller pieces when Rosa cut each of the remaining 4 halves into 8 equal pieces (4 halves x 8 pieces = 32 pieces total, minus the 12 pieces she kept = 20 smaller pieces).

b. Each of the smaller pieces can be referred to as a watermelon wedge or slice.

c. The fraction that represents all of the small pieces is 20/32, which can be simplified to 5/8. This fraction signifies that Rosa has 5 out of 8 equal pieces from the 5 watermelons she cut in half and further divided into smaller pieces.
