Question

Mary ate one slice of pizza, Paul ate 2 slices, and Jane ate half of the pizza. If Mary ate 1/8 of pizza and all the slices are the same size, what fraction of the pizza is left?

A) 7/8
B) 3/8
C) 1/8
D) 48

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

If there is 1 whole pizza, there would be 8 slices in total.

Mary - 1 slice

Paul - 2 slices

Jane - 4 slices

1+2+4

= 7 slices left

So that means we have 1/8th of the pizza left.
