Answer 2

we know that

1) You have
`3/4` of a pie leftover after your party

2) Each

guest takes home
`1/6` of the leftover pie

To find the fraction of the original pie does each guest take home,

Multiply
`3/4` by
`1/6`

so

`(3)/(4) *(1)/(6) =(3)/(24)`

Simplify

Divide by
`3` both numerator and denominator

`(3)/(24)=(1)/(8)`

therefore

the answer is

`(1)/(8)`
