Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, traditionally, it would be 5/8ths of the cake remaining. If you however cut it into a disproportionate number of slices, then that would, of course, factor in to the technical answer. You certainly COULD say you have 10/16ths remaining? If you’re into incorrect fractions, you COULD have 2.5/4ths of your cake left.

Overrall, if YOU ate 3/8ths of a cake, who cares how much is left… are YOU okay? That’s almost a half a cake!!! That’s a lot of cake and you might need a nap rather than to worry over how much cake is left. If you have no roommates, cover that cake up and go find a deep, dark cave to hibernate in for the next few hours/days. If you do have roommates, hide your 5/8ths of a cake (unless you WANT to share— weird-o) and THEN follow the remaining advise above.
