Answer:

Each child get 1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out what fraction of the jug does each child get, divide the fraction of the jug by the number of children

Let

x -----> the fraction of the jug

y ----> number of children

we have

[tex]x=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]y=5[/tex]

so

[tex](1/3)/5=\frac{1}{15}[/tex]

therefore

Each child get 1/15
