4) Jacqueline, Hanry, and Stanley bought a pizza pie to share for dinner. Harry ate 1/2 of the pie, and then Jacqueline ate 1/2 of what was left. After Jacqueline
finished, Stanley ate 1/2 of what was left of the pie. What fractional part of the
pizza pie was left after Stanley finished eating? Help please

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so before i start i wanna say that this is gonna get confusing

Since the pizza is a whole quantity let us take it as 1.

Harry ate half of the pizza therefore the fraction that Harry ate = 1/2 of 1

= 1/2 × 1 = 1/2

Therefore fraction Harry ate = 1/2

Fraction of pizza left = 1 - 1/2 (LCM = 2)

= 1/2

Jacqueline ate 1/2 of what was left.

So, Fraction of pizza Jacqueline ate = 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4

Therefore fraction of pizza left after both Harry and Jacqueline ate =

1 - (1/2 +1/4) = 1 - 3/4 (LCM = 4) = 1/4

Therfore fraction of pizza left = 1/4

Stanley ate 1/2 of what was left.

So, fraction of pizza Stanley ate = 1/2 × 1/4 = 1/8

Therefore, fraction of pizza left after all three of them ate =

1 - (1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8) = 1 - 7/8 (LCM = 8) = 1/8

I hope this helps i know this is rlly confusing but i dont know how else to put it : )

Have a nice day!
