Answer:

The number of oatmeal bowls that Otis made when distributing 13/5 of oatmeal in bowls with 2/5 is:

  • Six and a half bowls.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of bowls made, the total oatmeal should be divided into the number of oatmeal that each bowl contains, as expressed below:

  • Total bowls= Total oatmeal / oatmeal in each bowl.
  • Total bowls= (13/5) / (2/5)
  • Total bowls= (65/10)= 6.5 bowls.

Of course, since the total oatmeal and oatmeal on each plate have the same divisor "5", you could simply divide the two dividends, in this form:

  • Total bowls= 13/2= 6.5 bowls.
