Answer:

1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 ÷ 3 is the set-up for the problem we are trying to solve.

Remember when we divide fractions we multiply by the reciprocal. So we have:

1/3 × 1/3 since the reciprocal of 3/1 is 1/3

Multiplying 1/3 x 1/3 we find the product is 1/9

Therefore, each person would receive 1/9 of the watermelon
