Question

A sub sandwich is cut into sixths. Tim eats two parts of the sandwich. How many parts are left ?

Answer 1

There should be about 4 pieces of sandwich left

Since there were 6 pieces

`6/6`
`of`
`the`
`sandwich`

Tim ate 2 pieces

`6/6 - 2/6=4/6`

Which means 4/6 of the sandwich is left

Hope this helps
