Question

Joy ate 1/4 of a pizza. if she divides the rest of the pizza into pieces equal to 1/8 pizza for her family, how many pieces will her family get?

Answer 1

Answer:

How many pieces will her family get?

6 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

This pizza was divided in 4 pieces, Joy ate 1/4, we need to know how many pieces are left now?

$\frac{4}{4} -\frac{1}{4} =\frac{4-1}{4} =\frac{3}{4}$

Now, we have 3/4 of a pizza and Joy will divide this rest of the pizza in pieces equal to 1/8, so we need to make a division

$\frac{3}{4}$÷$\frac{1}{8}=\frac{24}{4}=$ 6 equal pieces

Answer 2

6 slices cut into 1/8ths
