Question

Damayanti ate $\frac{2}{9}$ th part of a pizza. The remaining was divided equally between Hari and Shankar. What part of pizza did Hari and Shankar get?

Answer 1

Amount of pizza eaten by Damayanti $=\frac{2}{9}$

Amount of pizza not eaten by Damayanti

$\frac{9}{9}-\frac{2}{9}=\frac{7}{9}$



This portion is to be divided equally amongst Hari and Shankar.



$\therefore$ Hari and Shankar will get $\frac{7}{9}÷\frac{2}{1}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{7}{9}\times \frac{1}{2}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{7}{18}$ of the pizza each

So, Hari and Shankar each get $\frac{7}{18}$ of the pizza.
