Answer:
1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Demont made one fourth ([tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]) pound of rock candy
He separates the candy into four sacks equally.
This is done by dividing the total fraction of candy of a pound of candy made by the number of sacks
The fraction of a pound of candy that will be in each sack therefore is:
[tex]\frac{1}{4}\div 4= \frac{1}{4}X\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}[/tex]
Therefore, One-Sixteenth of a pound of candy will be in each of the sack.
