pizza palace cuts a medium pizza into 8 slices.the same size pizza at pizza pioneers si cut into 16 slices.Jasmine ate 4 slices of a medium pizza from pizza pioneers.what fraction of the pizza from pizza palace is equal to 4/16. Explain
It would be half of the pizza from Pizza Pioneers because 16 is 8 doubled. Therefore, two pieces of pizza from Pizza Palace is equal to 4 pieces from Pizza Pioneers.
Answer:
\(\frac{1}{4}\)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Pizza palace cuts a medium pizza into 8 slices,
So, the part of each slice in Pizza palace = \(\frac{1}{8}\)
Let x be the number of slice eaten from Pizza palace,
Such that it is equal to \(\frac{4}{16}\) part of the pizza,
\(\frac{1}{8}\times x = \frac{4}{16}\)
\(\frac{x}{8}=\frac{4}{16}\)
\(16x = 32\)
\(\implies x = 2\)
Hence, \(\frac{1}{4}\) of the pizza from pizza palace is equal to 4/16.
