At a party 32 children will equally share 8 pizzas.What fraction of a pizza will each child get.

1 answer

To find out how much pizza each child will get, you can divide the total number of pizzas by the number of children.

There are 8 pizzas and 32 children, so the fraction of pizza each child will receive is:

\[ \text{Fraction of pizza per child} = \frac{\text{Total pizzas}}{\text{Total children}} = \frac{8}{32} \]

To simplify \(\frac{8}{32}\):

\[ \frac{8 \div 8}{32 \div 8} = \frac{1}{4} \]

Therefore, each child will get \(\frac{1}{4}\) of a pizza.
