Answer:
Each person received \(\frac{1}{6}\) of an apple
Step-by-step explanation:
If \(\frac{1}{2}\) of an apple was shared equally among the 3 people.
We will divide \(\frac{1}{2}\) by 3 to find how much apple each person got.
\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{3}{1}\)
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × \(\frac{1}{3}\)
= \(\frac{1}{6}\)
Each person received \(\frac{1}{6}\) of the whole apple.
