Jen has 2 meters of taffy. She wants to give each of her 3 best friends an equal amount of taffy. How many centimeters of taffy will each friend get? Write your answer as a fraction.

Respuesta :

Each friend will get 2/3 of a meter. This is so because if you divide the 2 meters of taffy by her 3 friends, then you get 2/3 of a meter.
1 meter = 100 cm.....so 2 meters = (100 * 2) = 200 cm

and u want to split it 3 ways....
200/3 cm. or 66 2/3 cm. <== ur answer
