Answer:
The pie he have is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : There was [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] of a pie left in the fridge. Daniel ate [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of the leftover pie.
To find : How much pie did he have?
Solution :
Left pie in the fridge is [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Daniel ate the leftover pie is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Total amount of pie left is given by the difference in left pie and eaten pie,
[tex]n=\frac{5}{8}-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
[tex]n=\frac{5-1\times 2}{8}[/tex]
[tex]n=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Therefore, The pie he have is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
