Marco and Ramon ate 3/8 + 4/8
so Emilio got ___
A. 1/8 of the pizza
B. 2/8 of the pizza
C. 4/8 of the pizza
D. 5/8 of the pizza
so Emilio got ___
We are given that the pizza was divided into 8 slices, and Marco ate 3/8 of the pizza.
To find how many slices Marco ate, we can multiply the total number of slices (8) by the fraction representing Marco's share (3/8):
8 * (3/8) = 24/8 = 3 slices
So, Marco ate 3 slices of pizza.
We are also given that Ramon ate 1 slice more than Marco.
To find how many slices Ramon ate, we can add 1 to Marco's consumption:
3 + 1 = 4 slices
So, Ramon ate 4 slices of pizza.
To find out how much Emilio ate, we can subtract the number of slices Marco and Ramon ate from the total number of slices:
8 slices - 3 slices - 4 slices = 1 slice
Therefore, Emilio ate 1 slice of the pizza.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. 1/8 of the pizza.
