Question 1022791

Your mom purchased the vanilla you need to use for the cookies in increments of 9/10's teaspoons containers.  She told you to separate one of the vanilla containers into 6 small piles. How much of a fraction would be in each pile?

My daughter is having trouble with this one and to be honest so am I.
Thanks!
<pre>One of the {{{(9/10)^(th)}}}-teaspoon containers is DIVIDED into 6 piles,
so we get the fraction: {{{matrix(1,5, 9/10, "÷", 6, or, (9/10) * (1/6) = (3cross(9)/10) * (1/2cross(6)) = highlight(highlight_green(highlight(3/20))))}}} in each pile
