Q. Greg is going to a picnic with his soccer team to celebrate the end of the season. He decides to bring a long sub sandwich to share. He cuts the sandwich into 22 equal pieces so it will fit in his picnic basket. His teammates have asked for different toppings, so Greg adds cheese to 11 of the pieces.\newlineWhat fraction of the sandwich has cheese?\newline____ /____
  1. Cutting the Sandwich: Greg cuts the sandwich into 22 equal parts. Each part represents 12\frac{1}{2} of the whole sandwich. He adds cheese to only one of these parts.
  2. Adding Cheese: To find the fraction of the sandwich with cheese, we consider the part with cheese. Since only one of the two parts has cheese, the fraction is 11 out of 22 parts.
