    The total grapes is a whole, that is 100% or simply put 1, all the fractions must add to 1 to get the total. So we have:

    akeem: 1/2

    jamila: 1/3

    kim: x

    1/2 + 1/3 + x = 1

    3/6 + 2/6 + x = 1

    5/6 + x = 1

    x = 1 - 5/6

    x = 6/6 - 5/6

    x = 1/6

    so kim has 1/6 still
