To share 2 apples among three people equally, each person would receive ( \frac{2}{3} ) of an apple. This can be achieved by cutting one apple into three equal parts, giving each person ( \frac{1}{3} ) of an apple, and then repeating the process with the second apple. Therefore, each person would receive approximately 0.67 of an apple.
Think of it this way: The denominators tell what kind of things are being added, whereas the numerators tell how many things are being added. Examples: (two/apple) + (three/apple) = (two+three)/(apple) = five/apple. ================================================ (two/apple) + (three/plum) is NOT equal to (two+three)/(apple+plum) ================================================ (one)/(pair) + (two)/(pair) = (one+two)/(pair) = (three)/(pair) ================================================= (one)/(pair) + (one)/(individual) + (two)/(individual) = ? ? ? ===> express (one)/(pair) as (two)/(individual), then: (two)/(individual) + (one)/(individual) + (two)/(individual) = (five)/(individual) or (2.5)/(pair)
i give each one and apple in the room and i am left with an apple
One apple, 3 apples take away 2 apples is one apple
Three apples minus two apples leaves one apple. 3-2=1
