Arya, Abhimanyu and Vivek shared lunch. Arya has brought two sandwiches, one made of vegetable and one of jam. The other two boys forgot to bring their lunch. Arya agreed to share his sandwiches so that each person will have an equal share of each sandwich.

(a) How can Arya divide his sandqiches so that each person has an equal share?


(b) What part of a sandwich will each boy receive?

(a) We know that,

Arya has brought two sandwiches, one made of vegetable and the other of jam.


Therefore,


To divide both the sandwiches equally among them,


He will divide each sandwich in three equal parts.


Then,


He will give one part of each sandwich to each one of them.


(b) Since,


We know that each sandwhich is divided into three equal parts.


Hence,


Each boy will get part of each sandwich.
