Anna and Jose bought a pizza and ate 5 of the 8 slices. Zach and Sarah came over and Anna split the remaining slices evenly between them. How would you determine the fraction of the original pizza that Zach and Sarah each ate?

Respuesta :

Answer:

24/2 slices

= 12/1

Step-by-step explanation:

Total slices of pizza = 8

Anna and Jose ate = 5

Slices of pizza remaining = 3

Zach and Sarah came over and Anna split the remaining slices evenly between them

That's is, 3 slices of pizza divided by 2 people

= 3/2

= 1 1/2 slices each

Each of Zach and Sarah ate 3/2 slices of pizza

fraction of the original pizza that Zach and Sarah each ate

= 3/2 of 8

= 3/2 × 8

= 24/2

= 12/1
