Answer 2

Answer: Ritu ate 7/8, which is the maximum part of their pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve first we need to find a common denominator so that all the fractions can be compared

7/8,    6/7,    5/6,    4/5,

LCM for 8  7  6  5 is 840

So lets use 840 as a common denominator

735  / 840  >  720  / 840  >  700  / 840  > 672  / 840

so 7/8 is the maximum among all

∴ Ritu ate 7/8, which is the maximum part of their pizzas
