• Leftover Daniel pie?

Ans:-

The first step is to find a lot of cakes that will be given to five of Daniel's friends

• 
  `\sf \to 5*(3)/(8) = (5*3)/(8) = (15)/(8)pie`

Finally we determine the rest of Daniel's pie

• 
  `\sf \to 3 - (15)/(8) = (24)/(8) - (15)/(8) = (9)/(8)pie`

Therefore leftover Daniel pie is =
`(9)/(8)`pie or
`1(1)/(8)`pie
