Question

When planning for a dinner party, my mom purchased 3 pies of the same size for dessert. We ate 3/4 of one pie and 7/8 of another pie. How much pie was left over after the party?

Answer 1

1 3/8

Explanation:

First, we have to make the fractions have the same denominator. 3/4= 6/8.

Answer 2

1
`(3)/(8)`
