Question

A pizza is cut into 10 equal slices. Eight friends each eat 1 slice. How much of the pizza did the friends eat? equation

Answer 1

4/5

• 10 slices = 1 pizza
• 8 friends
• Each friend eats one slice

1 slice = 1/10 of the entire pizza

8 friends * 1 slice / 10 slices =

8 * 1/10 = 8/10 of the pizza was eaten

8/10 = 4/5 of the pizza was eaten
