skylar is having a party ordered 6 pizzas sliced into 8 pieces for 12 kids what fraction of the pizza will each kid get?
(6 * 8) / 12 = 4 pieces
4/8 = ?
so in total there are 48 slices split between 12 kids, so each kid gets 4 slices. Each kid then gets half of a pizza.
To find out the fraction of the pizza that each kid will get, you need to determine the total number of slices available and divide it by the number of kids.
First, let's calculate the total number of slices. Skylar ordered 6 pizzas, and each pizza is sliced into 8 pieces. So, the total number of slices is 6 x 8 = 48 slices.
Next, we divide the total number of slices by the number of kids. In this case, there are 12 kids, so we need to divide 48 by 12.
48 ÷ 12 = 4.
Therefore, each kid will get 4 slices of pizza.
Now, let's represent this as a fraction. The total number of slices is 48, and each kid gets 4 slices. So the fraction each kid will get is 4/48, which can be simplified to 1/12.
Hence, each kid will get 1/12 fraction of the pizza.
