We'll write the exercise like this:
We found the fraction that represents the strawberry cakes.
Now let's find the number representing each fraction:
We'll multiply the number of cakes by the fraction representing the chocolate/cheese/strawberry cakes:
Let's multiply the numerator by 45:
Let's divide both the numerator and denominator by 3
Without calculating, determine whether the quotient in the division exercise is smaller than 1 or not:
