Fractions

 It's amazing how working with chocolates makes sense of fractions!!!
The problem today: "If I have 4 kit-kat fingers how will I share them equally with 6 people."
 Charlotte, Emily and Yvon broken the kit-kat into four fingers, they halved three fingers and divided the last finger into thirds and then sixths. Girls what will the answer to how much of the chocolate kit-kat did each person get?

These groups divided each finger into thirds and then shared them equally amongst 6 people. What proportion of the kit-kat did each person get? Is it the same answer as the first group?
