Question

Word sums:

1) Diya found 1/4 of cake left in the fridge. She wants to share it with 2 of her friends. How much cake will each person get to eat?

2) Dany opened a pizza box. Inside there was 3/4 of a pizza. Dany ate 1/2 of what was remaining. How much of a pizza did Dany eat?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1] 1/8 and 2] 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1 ] Cake Diya has = 1/4

Number of People to share with = 2

Fraction of cake each person will get to eat = 1/4 ÷ 2

  = 1/4 x 1/2

  = 1/8

Each of Diya friend will get 1/8th of the cake.

2 ] Fraction of Pizza left in the pizza box = 3/4

Fraction of Pizza Dany ate = 1/2 of 3/4

  = 1/2 x 3/4

  = 1x3/2x4

  = 3/8

Dany ate 3/8th part of the remaining pizza.

Hope this helped you.
