Feeding time at the zoo


Year 3 bought a picnic lunch of muffins, pizza, strawberries, oranges and juice for the family in the story Zoo. Can you answer the questions:

1. The mum and two boys will share equally the three healthy foods at the picnic (the strawberries, oranges and juice). How many of each will they get?

2. The whole family, mum, dad and the two boys will share equally the muffins and pizza. How many of each will they get?

3. What fraction of each food would mum get?
