This is the concept of algebra, To solve the question we proceed as follows; Number of chocolate cake left=23 The number of pieces that was left after the cake was divided into 2 equal pieces will be: 23*2 =46
Number of strawberry cake left = 56 The number of pieces that was left after the cake was divided into 3 equal pieces will be: 56*3 =168
Comparing the two fraction, the flavor that had larger pieces was strawberry cake; This cake was larger compared to chocolate by: 168-46 =122 The answer is Strawberry by 122 of a cake
