Question

Raj was given 3/4 of a cake and he ate 3/4 of that part of the cake. how much of the whole cake did he eat?

Answer 1

Let the whole cake be 1.

Raj was given from whole cake = 3/4 of 1

Raj eat from the given part of the cake = 3/4 of 3/4 of 1

Thus, Raj eats from the whole cake is:

`(3)/(4)*(3)/(4)*1`
`=(9)/(16)`

Therefore, Raj eats 9/16 of the whole cake.
