Answer:
Samantha ate 1/4 of the whole pizza
3/8 part of pizza remains.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of slices in a pizza pie = 8
Number of slices Cameron ate = 3
Number of slices Samantha ate = 2
Fraction of pizza Samantha ate = number of slices Samantha ate / total number of slices in a pizza pie
Fraction of pizza Samantha ate = 2/8
2/8 = 1/4
Samantha ate 1/4 of the whole pizza pie
Number of pieces totally eaten = Number of slices Cameron ate + Number of slices samantha ate
Number of pieces totally eaten = 5
Number of pieces remaining = 8-5
Number of pieces remaining =3
Fraction of pieces left = number of pieces remaining / total number of slices in a pizza pie
Fraction of pieces left in the pizza = 3/8
