John ate some pie for lunch. He left 2/3 of the pie. Jerry ate 1/2 of the remaining pie. How much pie did Jerry eat?
(1/2) * (2/3) = 1/6
still chill still chill still chill.
ans is 1/6.
To find out how much pie Jerry ate, we can start by calculating how much pie was left after John ate 2/3 of it.
If John left 2/3 of the pie, then the remaining fraction of the pie would be 1 - 2/3. To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator, which is 3.
So, the remaining fraction of the pie after John ate would be (3/3) - (2/3) = 1/3.
Now, we know that Jerry ate 1/2 of the remaining pie. To find out how much pie Jerry ate, we can multiply the remaining fraction by 1/2.
(1/3) * (1/2) = 1/6.
Therefore, Jerry ate 1/6 of the pie.
