Segments

L.I-W.A.L.T... find simple fractions of shapes and lengths.

(A) Mum bought these lolly snakes she shared each one equally among her five children. How many segments did each child get.


1/5 of 100= 20 segments. I know it is 20 because 
5 x  20=100, 20 + 20=40, 20 + 20 = 40 and 40 + 40 = 80 so 80 + 20 =100,  100 ÷ 5 = 20.
