Jerry Conner · Answer 1

2/3, 5/6, 1/2, 1/6, 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

One afternoon, they each had 2 large chocolate bars.

Amy 8/6 of her chocolate bar = (2 - 8/6) = 2/3

Bill 1 1/6 of his chocolate bars = (2 - 11/6 = 2 - 7/6 = 5/6)

Katie 9/6 of her chocolate bars = (2-9/6) = 1/2

Gretchen 1 5/6 of her chocolate bars = (2 - 1 5/6) = 2 - 11/6 = 1/6

Dylan 1 3/6 of his chocolate bars = 2 - 1 3/6 = 2-9/6 = 1/2
