Question

There are four people in a room. If they cut an apple into $4$ equal pieces and take $1$ piece each, each has eaten what part of the apple?

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

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{1}{4}$

An apple got cut into four equal pieces, so the fraction of one part is $\frac{1}{4}$.

Thus, each has eaten $\frac{1}{4}$ part of the apple.
