Question

A group of 7 friends are sharing an order of 5 pizzas. Each pizza is cut into 8 slices Explain how you could use different fractions to describe the amount of pizza each friend gets

Answer 1

Answer:

1 pizza = 8 slices

5 pizza = 8×5= 40 slices

7 friends = 40 slices

1 friend = 40/7 slices

Fraction of pizza each will get= 8÷40/7

= 8×7/40

= 7/5

So, each will get 7/5 of a pizza.

Answer 2

Answer:

(8*5) / 7

(5/7) * 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually,  if the pizzas can't cut into more slices and everyone need not require to get equal slices

then answer will be 5*6/40+2*5/40

5 friends will get 6 slices or 3/20 each and 2 friends will get 5 slices or 1/8 each
