Yes give them each 16/17 of an apple.

She gave each child an apple, then ate two herself.
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.
Make an omelet or scrambled eggs.
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.

You sure can. Give each child one apple and cut the last into 16 pieces - one for each child.If you don't want to cut the apple then no, you cannot equally divide 17 apples among 16 children.

Divide it by 3 and you get 0.9 each
Make an omelet or scrambled eggs.
To share 3.60 equally among a group of people, you would divide 3.60 by the number of people. If there are 3 people, each person would receive 1.20.
Create scrambled eggs or an omelet, everyone will get a portion
60000/3 = $20000 you keep $40000 to divide up among 8 people 40000/8 = $5000 for each of the 8 people
yes each kid gets 0.9411764
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. :-)>
