Three teachers share 2 packs of paper equally. How much paper does each teacher get? Select all that apply. A 2 halves of a pack B 3 fourths of a pack C 3 sixths of a pack D 1 third of a pack E 2 thirds of a pack

The correct answers are:

E. 2 thirds of a pack

Calculate the amount of paper each teacher receives.

Three teachers share 2 packs of paper equally. Each teacher receives 2 packs / 3 teachers = 2/3 of a pack.

• Option A: 2 halves of a pack

2 halves of a pack = 2 * (1/2) = 1 pack. This is not equal to 2/3 of a pack.

• Option B: 3 fourths of a pack

3 fourths of a pack = 3 * (1/4) = 3/4 of a pack. This is not equal to 2/3 of a pack.

• Option C: 3 sixths of a pack

3 sixths of a pack = 3 * (1/6) = 3/6 = 1/2 of a pack. This is not equal to 2/3 of a pack.

• Option D: 1 third of a pack

1 third of a pack = 1/3 of a pack. This is not equal to 2/3 of a pack.

• Option E: 2 thirds of a pack

2 thirds of a pack = 2 * (1/3) = 2/3 of a pack. This is equal to the amount each teacher receives. So Option E is correct.
