Question

"A pizza originally has 8 slices. A family eats 5 slices. What fraction of the pizza is remaining?"

Answer 1

3/8

Explanation:

• "A pizza originally has 8 slices. A family eats 5 slices. What fraction of the pizza is remaining?"

8 slices is a whole pizza divided into 8 parts, so each slice is 1/8, 5 slices are eaten, therefore 5/8, to know how much remains we subtract 5/8 from 8/8

8 slices = 1 pizza = 8/8

8/8 - 5/8 = 3/8
