A student has 4 fifths gallons of popcorn to give away. He wants to split it evenly between his 7 friends. How much popcorn does each friend receive?
4/5 * 1/7 = 4/35 of a gallon
He wants to split it evenly between his 7 friends.
That should be "... split it evenly among his 7 friends."
When there are two, use between.
When more than two, use among.
