he ate 1/3 rd of x/6 = x/18

Answer 2

Devesh ate $\frac{1}{18}$ a portion of the pizza on Sunday.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pizza was made by Devesh.

He kept $\frac{1}{6}$pizza and ate the rest.

So, the portion of pizza he ate $= 1-\frac{1}{6} = \frac{6-5}{6} = \frac{5}{6}$

On Sunday, he ate $\frac{1}{3}$ the remaining pizza.

So, the portion of pizza he ate $= \frac{1}{6}\times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{18}$

Thus, the amount of pizza that he ate on Sunday was one-eighteenth times what he had made.
