Question

Lou eats 6/8 of pizza what fraction of the pizza es left over

Answer 1

2/8 is left over and its equivalent to 1/4

Answer 2

`(8)/(8)` is the full pizza

So to solve it, you need to minus the amount that Lou ate from the whole pizza

So it would be
`(8)/(8) - (6)/(8)`
`= (2)/(8)`

To reduce to the lowest terms, you would find the greatest common factor for both the numerator(top) and the denominator(bottom) so 2 is a common factor

2÷2=1 and 8÷2=4

So your answer would be
`(1)/(4)`

Answer:
`(1)/(4)` is the fraction of the pizza left over
