Answer:
[tex]1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we do 6 / 5 = 1.2. We do this because we are sharing 6 cups with 5 friends - we are dividing 6 cups between 5 friends.
So, each friend will get 1.2 cups. But, the question is asking for a fraction. 0.2 is the same as [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex], so each person will get [tex]1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Alternatively, you could do [tex]\frac{6}{5} = 1\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Hope this makes sense.
