Fraction of the coins. Question: How much does each person receive?

Answer: Each person receives 2 and 1/8 of a coin.

Standard Division We, Chunfeng and others, respectfully note: "Standard Division" refers to the method where all fractions, from the simple to the complex, are made uniform. This is simply seeking the share of one person by dividing the total amount by the number of people. Hence it is called Standard Division.

Procedure: Use the number of people as the divisor and the amount of money as the dividend. Divide the dividend by the divisor to get the result.

For those with fractions, convert them. Cross-multiplying the denominators determines how to uniform the numerators; multiplying the denominators together makes the denominators the same. Using the denominators to convert the whole number means multiplying the denominator by the whole and adding the numerator. Multiplying the entire value creates a "converted total." The converted total is then connected with the numerator; thus, the sum can be known, and they can be made to follow each other. Whenever numbers relate to one another, this is called "simplification." The rates allow one to know the relationship. If there are fractions, one can disperse them. If the dispersed fractions overlap, then
equal division of the dividend and divisor is the rate of their relationship. Therefore, for dispersed fractions, one must make them
multiply the divisor and dividend. The two denominators are multiplied by each other for the dividend. If there are further fractions, make them the same and convert them. The denominator also divides by the divisor to multiply the dividend.
