Solution
The correct option is C Three quarters They bought 2 pizzas.
Rama ate 2/4 of a pizza which is nothing but half a pizza.
Now we are left with one and a half pizza.
Shama, Shyam and Kirti ate 1/4 of a pizza each.
Total pizza that they had is 3 quarters of a pizza.
Subtracting 3 quarters from one and a half pizza we get the pizza that is left.
One and a half pizza represents 6 quarters of pizza.
Therefore, the pizza left is
= 6 quarters - 3 quarters
= 3 quarters
