Question

You have 7/8 of a pizza left over form a party. you would like to give each friend 1/4 of the left over pizza. how many friends can you give 1/4 of the pizza to
A. 7/32
b 1
c 3
d 3 1/2​

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is C.

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{8}$

Each friend will be receiving $\frac{2}{8}$ of a pizza.

$\frac{7}{8} - \frac{2}{8} - \frac{2}{8} - \frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{8}$

You can't give someone $\frac{1}{8}$ of a pizza, and you can't have half of a friend, so that one remains uneaten. This means that you give pizza to 3 friends.
