Peter says that 3/4 of a pizza is always the same as 6/8 of a pizza. Nadia says that while they are equivalent fractions, 3/4 and 6/8 of a pizza could represent different amounts. Who is correct

Nadia is right because the amount of each slice could be different by a thin slice and can effect other slices too therefore Nadia is right

Nadia

6/8 is 3/4 and both is 75% of a pizza but, the eighths of a pizza is a smaller slice of pizza.

4/4 is four slices of pizza
8/8 is eight slices of pizza They are different amounts.
