1/8 = 12.5%

12.5% + 25% = 37.5%

We need to know how much is left.

37.5% is gone, so 100% - 37.5% = 62.5%

62.5% is left for Mohamed to eat.

62.5% = 5/8.

5/8 of a pizza is left for mohamed to eat.

Answer:

There is 5/8 left for Mohamed to eat.

Explanation:

Let's put everything into fractions of 1/8. knowing that 25% is 1/4 or 2/8, 1/8 + 2/8= 3/8. and to find the answer, you need to subtract 3/8 from 8/8 or 1.

As a result, 5/8.
