Question

A circular pizza is cut into 8 equal pieces. Ranjan ate two slices. The fraction of pizza left is:

• A. $\frac{1}{4}$
• B. $\frac{1}{2}$
• C. $\frac{3}{4}$
• D. $\frac{1}{3}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{3}{4}$

The pizza is cut into 8 equal slices.
Rajan ate two slices.
The number of slices left = 8 - 2
= 6
The white portion represents the fraction of pizza left.
We can clearly observe that the white portion represents three quarters of the whole pizza.
Therefore, the fraction of pizza left is 3/4.
