A counterexample for the division of whole numbers is if we have 6 apples and we try to divide them equally among 4 people. Each person would get 1 apple and there would be 2 apples remaining. In this case, it is not possible to divide the apples equally among 4 people without leaving any remainder.
Since 16 and 17 are relatively prime, i.e. they share no divisors other than 1, the only ways to divide 16 apples equally amongst 17 children is to either cut each apple into 17 pieces and give 16 pieces to each child, or cut a 17th of an apple out of each apple, give the cut apples to 16 of the children and give the 16 pieces to the 17th child.Another way to do it is to make apple sauce. From my wife. Gee, wish I had thought of that. :-)>
If you divide 6 pounds by 8 children, you will see that each child receives 75 pence (75 pennies).

yes each kid gets 0.9411764
Yes give them each 16/17 of an apple.

Divide it by 3 and you get 0.9 each
To share 2 apples among 3 people equally, you can cut one apple in half, giving each person 0.5 apples. Then, cut the second apple in half, giving each person another 0.5 apples. This way, each person will have a total of 1 apple, and the apples are shared equally among the 3 people.
