Question

If you have a quarter of a pie and cut it in half, what fraction of a pie would each slice represent?

Answer 1

1/8; say you have one whole pie, cut into fourths, than take one fourth, or one quarter, and cut that in half, it's the same as if you cut the whole pie in half than cut those halfs in half, making quaters, than cutting them in half, making a pie thats cut in eights, each slice is 1/8, one eight
