Molly is wrapping up parts of sandwiches to sell at her sandwich cart. She cuts each sandwich into fourths and then wraps each fourth separately. She says that she wrapped 16 fourths, so she wrapped 16 whole sandwiches. What was Molly's mistake ?

her mistake was that she was counting all the fourths as a whole sandwich when she really wraped up four sandwiches in total because 16 divided by 4 which is how many she cut it up into is 4 whole sandwiches
