Answer:
[tex]\frac{29}{9}[/tex] cakes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- The principal is equally distributing 12[tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex] cakes on 4 tables for a school party.
How many cakes are on each table?
12[tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{116}{9}[/tex]
We take
[tex]\frac{116}{9}[/tex] ÷ 4 = [tex]\frac{116}{9}[/tex] · [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{116}{36}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{29}{9}[/tex] cakes
So, each table gets [tex]\frac{29}{9}[/tex] cakes.
