Respuesta :

1/6 pounds
1/2 divided by 3 1/6

Answer: Each sandwich will get [tex]\frac{1}{6}\ pound[/tex] of cheese.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of sandwiches = 3

Amount of pound of cheese bought by Ben is given by

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Since we have given that he put the same amount of cheese on each sandwich.

So, Amount of cheese each sandwich will have is given by

[tex]=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{3}\\\\=\frac{1}{2\times 3}\\\\=\frac{1}{6}\ pound[/tex]

Hence, each sandwich will get [tex]\frac{1}{6}\ pound[/tex] of cheese.
