Answer:

Rowan ate
(2)/(5) of the pizza

Explanation:

Nap ate 2/5 of the pizza Rowan ate 2/3 of the pizza that was left how much of the pizza did Rowan eat?

Nap:
(2)/(5) can be rewritten as
(6)/(15)

Rowan:
(2)/(3) can be rewritten as
(10)/(15)

After Nap ate 2/5 of the pizza, there is 3/5 pizza left.


(3)/(5) can be rewritten as
(9)/(15)


(9)/(15)*(10)/(15) =
(2)/(5)


(9)/(15)*(10)/(15)=(3)/(5)*(2)/(3)=(1)/(5)*(2)/(1) =(2)/(5)

Rowan ate
(2)/(5) of the pizza

Hope this helps!
