Answer 1

Answer:

1/8 of the original pie

Step-by-step explanation:

Leftover pie = 3/4

Leftover pie each guest takes home = 1/6 of the leftover pie

What fraction of the original pie does each guest take home?

fraction of the original pie does each guest take home = Leftover pie × Leftover pie each guest takes home

= 3/4 × 1/6

= 3/24

= 1/8

fraction of the original pie does each guest take home = 1/8
