When Bunny and Walter came home from practice, there was a note from their mother sitting on top of a pizza box. “Had to run to a meeting. You two can share the rest of the pizza for dinner. Love ya!” When they opened the box, they saw that exactly one-fourth of the pizza was gone. If Bunny and Walter split what was left evenly, how much of the pizza will each get?

Answer:

3/8 pizza

Explanation:

If 1/4 of the 4/4 of the pizza was gone, 3/4 remained. When that is split in half, each half is (3/4)(1/2) = 3/8 of the pizza.

Each gets 3/8 of the pizza.
