Question

Lou eats 6/8 of a pizza. what fraction of the pizza, in simplest form, is left over

Answer 1

`(1)/(4)`

Explanation:

`(6)/(8)`

A full pizza would be a whole; 1 or
`(8)/(8)`. So you must subtract the amount Lou eats, to the original amount.

`(8)/(8) - (6)/(8) = (2)/(8)`

`(2)/(8) = (1)/(4)`

Your final answer will be
`(1)/(4)`.

Answer 2

2/8 is equivalent to 1/4
