Question

Emma ate 6 slices of pizza. She ate 3/4 of the entire pizza. How many slices of piZa were there in all?

Answer 1

If she at 6 slices and she ate 3/4 divide 6 and 3 and the answer is 2 then add 2 onto 6 and the answer will be 8 slices of pizza .

Answer 2

Emma ate 6 slices of pizza

She had
`(3)/(4)` of the pizza


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

To equally compare it, you must have a common denominator


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


`(3)/(4) = (24)/(4)`

The number of pizzas to multiply by 3 to get to 24 (to make it equal is 8)

So
`(3)/(4) *8= (24)/(4)`

Answer:

So that means there was 8 slices but she ate 6


`(6)/(8)` is the fraction for it
