A king owned land outside of his castle he has partitioned the land to give as gifts to his 5 sons what fraction of land did the king give to each of his sons here is zeke solution andy got 1/2 bill got 1/5 carl got 1/5 dirk got 1/8 and evan got 1/8 identify zeke's two errors correct them and explain why your answers are correct

Picture relating to the question is attached

Andy = 1/2

Bill = 1/8

Carl = 1/8

Evan = 1/8

Dirk = 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the picture depicting the sharing of the land :

Fraction of the total rectangular plot = 1

Andy got a portion of the whole divided into 2 = 1/2

Fraction left after Andy's portion:

1 - 1/2 = 1/2

1/2 of the fraction left was divided equally between Dirk and Evan

Hence ;

1/2 of 1/2 = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4

Dirk's share = 1/4 ÷ 2 = 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8

Evan's share = 1/4 ÷ 2 = 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8

Fraction of land left :

1 - (1/2 + 1/8 + 1/8) = 1 - 3/4 = 1/4

1/4 was divided equally into 2 for Bill and Carl:

Bill's share = 1/4 ÷ 2 = 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8

Carl's share = 1/4 ÷ 2 = 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8
