Question

Radha ate $\frac{5}{8}$th of a pizza. Rohan ate $\frac{2}{8}$th of the pizza. What fraction of the pizza did they eat together?

• A. $\frac{7}{8}$
• B. $\frac{3}{8}$
• C. $\frac{1}{8}$
• D. $\frac{2}{8}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{7}{8}$

Fraction of pizza eaten by Radha = $\frac{5}{8}$

Fraction of pizza eaten by Rohan = $\frac{2}{8}$

Fraction of pizza eaten by Radha and Rohan in total = $\frac{5}{8}$ + $\frac{2}{8}$

= $\frac{5+2}{8}$

= $\frac{7}{8}$
