Suppose you and 7 of your friends ate a medium pizza cut into 8 equal parts. Since you all were still hungry you ordered one more pizza. This time a large pizza, which is again cut into 8 equal parts. The percentage of the full large pizza eaten by you will be _____.
the same as that of the medium pizza.
We can see this example as a pie chart.
The medium pizza is divided into 8 equal parts. So, the percentage of pizza eaten by you =18×100.
Similarly the large pizza is again divided into 8 equal parts, the percentage of pizza eaten by you again =18×100.
So, the percentage of large pizza eaten by you will be same as percentage of medium pizza eaten.
