Question

Mr. Smith had 3/4 of a peach pie left over. He spilt the leftover pie among his 3 co-workers. What fraction of the pie did each co-worker receive​

Answer 1

Answer:

$Fraction = \frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Pie = \frac{3}{4}$

$Workers = 3$

Required

Determine the fraction received by each worker

To do this, we simply divide the fraction of the pie by the number of workers.

$Fraction = \frac{Pie}{Workers}$

$Fraction = \frac{3}{4}/3$

Convert to multiplication

$Fraction = \frac{3}{4} * \frac{1}{3}$

$Fraction = \frac{3}{12}$

Divide numerator and denominator by 3

$Fraction = \frac{3/3}{12/3}$

$Fraction = \frac{1}{4}$
