Question

Three people share half a pizza evenly. What fractional part of the original pizza does each one get?

Answer 1

The fractional part of the original pizza is
`(1)/(6)`

Let

x-----> the original pizza (complete pizza)

we know that

Half a pizza represent ------>

Divide half a pizza by three people

`((x)/(2))/3=(x)/(6)`

therefore

The fractional part of the original pizza is
