At Mariah's birthday party, 9 of her friends ateĀ  3/4 of her chocolate cake. How much of the cake did each friend eat?(1 point)

1 answer

To find out how much of the cake each friend ate, divide the amount of cake eaten by the number of friends.

9 friends ate 3/4 of the cake.

Therefore, each friend ate (3/4) / 9 = 3/4 * 1/9 = 3/36 = 1/12 of the cake.

So, each friend ate 1/12 of the cake.
