Answer:

2 1/4

Explanation:

Here is the complete question used in answering this question :

Luis put out 6 different pies at a picnic at the end of the picnic, he noticed this about the pies: one whole apple pie was eaten, and 3/4 of another apple pie was eaten 1/2 of the blackberry pie was eaten 1/8 of the blueberry pie was eaten 5/8 of the cherry pie was eaten 3/4 of the peach pie was eaten. What is the total amount of pies that where left over

amount left of apple pie = 1 - 3/4 = 1/4

amount left of blackberry pie = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

amount left of blueberry pie = 1 - 1/8 = 7/8

amount left of cherry pie = 1 - 5/8 = 3/8

amount left of peach pie = 1 - 3/4 = 1/4

add this figures together


(2 + 4 + 7 + 3 + 2 )/(8) =
(18)/(8) =
2(2)/(8) = 2
(1)/(4)
