Question

Some friends are sharing a pizza. If each person gets 1/8 of the pizza, what percent of the pizza does each person get?

Answer 1

We can solve this by dividing 1/8 since each friend gets 1/8 of the pizza. 1/8 gives us 0.125 as a decimal. After we convert that to a percentage, we will get 12.5 or 12. 50%. You can get the percentage by multiplying 0.125*100.

Answer 2

1/8=12.50%

Explanation:

Take the pizza as a whole = 100

Then consider 1/8 of 100

or 1/8 * 100

= 1/4 * 50

= 1/2 * 25

= 12.50

Therefore it is 12.50%
