Grandpa Mick opened a pint of ice crew. He gave his youngest grandchild 1/5 of the ice cream and his middle grandchild 1/4 of the remaining ice cream. Then, he gave his oldest grandchild 1/3 of the ice cream that was left after serving the others. Who got the most ice cream?

Tape diagram:

-Split into 10
-2= youngest
-2= middle
-2=oldest
No one got the most ice cream.
2+2+2=6. 6+2(Mick)=8
There is 2 left.

The oldest got the most. Thats all I can tell you

One fifth

Thank ya! I needed awnser

4/5 * 3/4 * 2/3 = what was left in the end

= .4 of original is left at the end

call original amount 1
then youngest gets .2
that leaves .8
then middle gets .8/4 = .2 as well
that leaves .6
oldest gets .6/3 = .2

ROTFL !!!

Bruh these are fake answers i need real ones

To find out who got the most ice cream, we need to follow the steps grandpa Mick took in distributing the ice cream.

1. Grandpa Mick gave his youngest grandchild 1/5 of the ice cream. Let's say the total amount of ice cream is represented by X.
- The youngest grandchild received 1/5 * X ice cream.
- The remaining amount of ice cream is (1 - 1/5) * X, which simplifies to 4/5 * X.

2. Grandpa Mick then gave his middle grandchild 1/4 of the remaining ice cream.
- The middle grandchild received 1/4 * (4/5 * X) ice cream.
- The remaining amount of ice cream is (1 - 1/4) * (4/5 * X), which simplifies to 3/5 * X.

3. Finally, Grandpa Mick gave his oldest grandchild 1/3 of the ice cream that was left after serving the others.
- The oldest grandchild received 1/3 * (3/5 * X) ice cream.
- The remaining amount of ice cream is (1 - 1/3) * (3/5 * X), which simplifies to 2/5 * X.

Now, we can compare the ice cream each grandchild received.

- The youngest grandchild received 1/5 * X ice cream.
- The middle grandchild received 1/4 * (4/5 * X) ice cream.
- The oldest grandchild received 1/3 * (3/5 * X) ice cream.

To determine who got the most ice cream, we can compare these fractions. However, to make the comparison easier, we can convert the fractions to decimals.

- The youngest grandchild received 0.2 * X ice cream.
- The middle grandchild received 0.25 * (4/5 * X) ice cream.
- The oldest grandchild received 0.33 * (3/5 * X) ice cream.

Now, we can calculate the decimal values:

- The youngest grandchild received 0.2 * X ice cream.
- The middle grandchild received 0.25 * (4/5 * X) = 0.25 * 0.8 * X = 0.2 * X ice cream.
- The oldest grandchild received 0.33 * (3/5 * X) = 0.33 * 0.6 * X = 0.198 * X ice cream.

Comparing the decimal values, we can see that the middle grandchild received the most ice cream, which is 0.2 * X.

my ice cream
