UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To determine the weight of each strawberry, you can divide the total weight of the box by the number of strawberries it contains.

1. **Total weight of the box:** $$ \frac{1}{2} $$ pound
2. **Number of strawberries in the box:** 15

**Calculation:**

$$
\text{Weight per strawberry} = \frac{\text{Total weight}}{\text{Number of strawberries}} = \frac{\frac{1}{2} \text{ pound}}{15} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{15} = \frac{1}{30} \text{ pound}
$$

**Answer:** Each strawberry weighs $$ \frac{1}{30} $$ pound.
