If Ginger evenly shares 3/4

of a pizza with 8 people, how big of a slice does each person get?

1 answer

To find out how big of a slice each person gets, first we need to divide the \( \frac{3}{4} \) of the pizza by the 8 people.

We can express this mathematically as:

\[ \text{Slice size} = \frac{3/4}{8} \]

To divide a fraction by a whole number, we can multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the whole number:

\[ \text{Slice size} = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{8} \]

Now multiply the fractions:

\[ \text{Slice size} = \frac{3 \times 1}{4 \times 8} = \frac{3}{32} \]

Therefore, each person gets \( \frac{3}{32} \) of the pizza.
