Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, that is exactly what Sarah did wrong. Apparently, she tried to divide both the numerator and denominator in this problem by 2 (half) but divided the numerator incorrectly. 26 divided by 2 would equal 13 but Sarah mistakenly calculated it as 14 which would give her a totally different value when divided by the new denominator. If were to have divided correctly it would give her \frac{13}{4} which is the same as \frac{26}{8}

2 cakes - Theresa's and Joe's
Theresa's cake had 6 pieces after she cut it. (2 times the size of Joe's pieces)
Joe's cake had 12 pieces after he cut it. (1/2 the size of Theresa's pieces)

We know that 8/12ths of ONE cake were eaten and that Joe ate 2 of his pieces.
We want to know how many pieces Theresa ate of her cake. Keeping in mind that her pieces are equal to 2 of Joe's pieces we can solve this question. 

8/12 eaten total
if 2/12 by Joe
then 8-2 = 6, 6/12 by Theresa
(BUT: Theresa's pieces were twice the size of Joe's so we will divide by 2)
6/12 = 3/6

Answer: Theresa ate 3 pieces of her cake
