Question

Mary and her family ordered a large pizza for dinner. Half of the pizza is plain and half of the pizza has pepperoni. Mary loves pepperoni so she ate 1/5 of the full pizza (all of which had pepperoni). How much of the remaining full pizza has pepperoni?

Answer 1

3/10 of the renaming full pizza has pepperoni

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate how much of the remaining pizza had pepperoni.

From the question, 1/2 has pepperoni and 1/2 is plain without pepperoni

she eats 1/5 of the pizza having pepperoni, this means that she is actually left with some parts is the half having pepperoni

The actual of the half remaining with pepperoni will be 1/2 - 1/5 = 3/10

This means that 3/10 of the remaining full pizza has pepperoni
