Question

Eight members of the Math club equally shared three pizzas. Expressed as a fraction,whAt part of a pizza did each member receive ?

Answer 1

3/8 of a pizza.

If you divide each pizza into eight parts, each member would receive 1/8 of one pizza. Since there are three pizzas, each member would receive three 1/8 of a pizza, or 3/8.

You can prove this answer by multiplying 3/8 by 8, to get 24/8 simplified to 3.
