A circular pie with a 14-inch diameter is cut into 10 equal-sized slices. If you ate 4 slices of pie, how much area of pie did you eat? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

40%

Explanation:

Since the pie is divided into 10 equal sections, we can assume they are all equivalent areas. So 4 slices out of the total of 10 would mean that 4/10 or 40% of the pie has disappeared, with you as the only witness. I suggest removing the evidence by consuming the remaining 6 slices.
