Kim made two pies that were exactly the same size. the first pie was a cherry pie, which she cut into 6 equal slices. the second
pie was a pumpkin pie, which she cut into 12 equal slices. Kim takes her pies to a party. people eat 3 slices of cherry pie and 6 slices of pumpkin pie. did people eat more cherry pie or pumpkin pie?
The cherry pie was cut into 6 equal slices and 3 of these slices were eaten so that means there is 1/2 of the pie still left.
The pumpkin pie was cut into 12 equal slices and 6 of these slices were eaten so that also means there is 1/2 of the pie left.
Since both pies still have 1/2 left and they were both the same size then that means the same amount of pie was eaten from both the cherry and the pumpkin.
