Question

sarita cut 3/5 of a pie for her children she gave 3/4 of the remaning to her neighbour (a) what part of the pie did she gave to her neighbour (b) what fraction of the pie was she left with​

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The part of the pie he gave to her neighbor =  $\frac{3}{10}$

(b) The fraction of the pie was she left with her = $\frac{1}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sarita cut 3/5 of a pie for her children

She gave 3/4 of the remaining to her neighbor.

To find,

(a) what part of the pie did she give to her neighbor

(b) what fraction of the pie was she left with

Solution:

The part of the pie given to her children = $\frac{3}{5}$

The part of the pie left after giving to children = 1 - $\frac{3}{5}$ =  $\frac{2}{5}$

Since she gave $\frac{3}{4}$ of the remaining to her neighbor,

The part of the pie given to her neighbor =  $\frac{2}{5}$ ×  $\frac{3}{4}$ = $\frac{3}{10}$

The part of the pie left with her = Total - part given to children - part given to the neighbor

= 1 -  $\frac{3}{5}$ -  $\frac{3}{10}$

= $\frac{10 - 6 - 3}{10}$

= $\frac{1}{10}$

The part of the pie left with her = $\frac{1}{10}$

(a) The part of the pie did he gave to her neighbor =  $\frac{3}{10}$

(b) The fraction of the pie left with her = $\frac{1}{10}$​

Answer 2

Answer:

(a) 3/10 of the pie she gave to her neighbor.

(b) 1/10 is the fraction of the pie she left with.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the measure of the pie be $1$.

It is given that the sarita cut 3/5 of a pie for her children, i.e.,

Sarita cut a piece for her children = 3/5 of a pie

                                                          = $\frac{3}{5}\times 1$

                                                          = $\frac{3}{5}$

The remaining part of a pie = $1-\frac{3}{5}$

                                               = $\frac{5-3}{5}$

                                              = $\frac{2}{5}$

(a)

According to the question,

She gave 3/4 of the remaining to her neighbor, i.e.,

Sarita gave to her neighbor = 3/4 of the remaining

                                              = $\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{2}{5}$

                                              = 3/10

(b)

The remaining fraction of the pie she left with is,

= $1-\frac{3}{5}-\frac{3}{10}$

= $\frac{10-6-3}{10}$

= 1/10
