You have 2/3 of a pizza. You divide the remaining pizza into 4 equal pieces. What fraction of the pizza is each piece?

Respuesta :

It is 4/3 or 1 and 1/3

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The remaining part of the pizza after taking 2/3 part of the pizza  

[tex]=1-\frac{2}{3}=\frac{3-2}{3}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

The number of equal pieces = 4,

Thus,

[tex]\text{The part of each piece}=\frac{\text{Remaining part}}{\text{Number of pieces}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{\frac{1}{3}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{1}{12}[/tex]

Therefore, each piece is [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] of the pizza.
