Allie's 19 carrots were divided equally between four people (Allie herself and her 3 friends) or 19 divided by 4 the result would be 4.75

( 4 times 4 is 16 remain 3 and 3 4 \frac{3}{4} of 1 =0.75 so 4 + 0.75 =4.75 )

the given options are

3.2

9

16

None of the above

4.75 is not equal to 3.2 or 9 or 16

so None of the above options match so the answer is

None of the above

In order for 19 carrots evenly among 4 people, you must find the quotient of the two: 19 4 = 4.75 \frac{19}{4}=4.75 Since 4.75 is not on the list of answers, the answer is None of the above \boxed{\text{None of the above}} .
