Question

Ronald Ate 1/3 of a pizza on Monday on Tuesday he ate part of the leftover pizza after he ate on Tuesdays there was 1/2 Of the pizza remaining Ronald drew a circle to represent the whole pizza and shaded part of it to represent the fraction of the pizza he ate on Tuesday which diagram did Ronald draw

A. 1/6

B.2/3

C.7/8

D.3/6

Answer 1

Explanation:

Answer 2

B.2/3

Explanation:

Let's work backwards from the information we have to determine which diagram Ronald drew.

We know that after Ronald ate on Tuesday, there was 1/2 of the pizza remaining. This means that he ate 1/2 of the pizza on Tuesday, since he had eaten 1/3 of the pizza on Monday.

So, if we add 1/2 and 1/3, we get:

1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6

This means that Ronald ate 5/6 of the pizza in total. We also know that he ate 1/2 of the pizza on Tuesday, so the fraction he ate on Monday was:

5/6 - 1/2 = 1/3

This confirms that Ronald ate 1/3 of the pizza on Monday.

Now, let's look at the answer choices. We need to find a diagram that represents Ronald eating 1/2 of the pizza, since that's what he ate on Tuesday. The only answer choice that represents 1/2 of the pizza shaded is B. 2/3.

Therefore, Ronald drew diagram B. 2/3.
