Question

Nupur ate 2/8 ofa pizza, Harsha ate 1/4 of the pizza while oscar ate remaining part of the pizza. Find the portion of the pizza oscar ate

Answer 1

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to add those fractions to find how much of the part of pizza is completed

So 2/8+1/4

LCM will be 8

We have to multiply both the fractions by 8

Then we get (2+2)/8=1/2

Now we know that a whole means 1 here it is 2/2 as we got denominator as 2

2/2-1/2=1/2

So the remaining part is 1/2

Answer 2

Given : Nupur ate 2/8 ofa pizza, Harsha ate 1/4 of the pizza while oscar ate remaining part of the pizza.

To Find:  the portion of the pizza oscar ate

Solution:

Let say Pizza = 8x

Nupur ate 2/8 of a pizza,  = (2/8)8x  = 2x

Harsha ate 1/4 of the pizza = (1/4)8x = 2x

Both ate Pizza = 2x + 2x = 4x

Remaining Pizza = 8x - 4x = 4x

Oscar ate = 4x  pizza

Total Pizza = 8x  

portion of the pizza oscar ate = 4x/8x   = 1/2

portion of the pizza oscar ate = 1/2
