Answer:

3 pieces of 1/4 can be made from the leftover cake.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cake left after the birthday party =
(6)/(8)

Fraction into which left cake it to be cut or divide =
(1)/(4)

Let the number of pieces of
(1)/(4) fraction be x.


x* (1)/(4)=(6)/(8)

x = 3

3 pieces of 1/4 can be made from the leftover cake.
