Answer:

1/12 Pound

Explanation:

The cheese weighs 1/4 of a pound. That gives us our first number, 1/4. We need to cut it into 3 pieces. That gives us our second number, 3. When we cut, we are dividing the original number into a smaller one. You can do this easier by multiplying the denominator (the bottom number of the fraction) of 1/4, which is 4, by 3. (The 3 represents the 3 chunks.) That gives you 12. Then put a 1 above the 12 and you're all set! 1/12!

1/4÷3=1/12
