Are hernandos calculations correct. Explain why or why not

Respuesta :

Answer: The calculation is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Hernando ate 2/8 of a pizza for a dinner, the remaining pizza will be:

= 1 - 2/8

= 6/8

If he gave his 6 friends the rest of the pizza and told them to share it equally, each person will get:

= 6/8 ÷ 6

= 6/8 × 1/6

= 1/8

Each person will get 1/8 each

Since he also concluded that each person received 1/8 of the whole pizza, Hernandos calculations are correct
