Answer:

Each person gets
\sf (4)/(35) of a pizza.

Explanation:

To find out what fraction of a pizza each person gets when 5 friends share 4/7 of a pizza, we can calculate the result by dividing the fraction of pizza (4/7) by the number of friends (5).

This can be represented as follows:


\sf (4)/(7) / 5 = (4)/(7) \cdot (1)/(5) \\\\ = (4)/(7) \cdot (1)/(5) \\\\ = (4)/(35)

So, each person gets
\sf (4)/(35) of a pizza.
