Thanks
1/6 so the answe is C?
No.
Multiply 1/2 by 1/3.
Thank you soooo much
You're very welcome.
Right.
Well, let me calculate that for you! If there is 1/2 of a pizza and Jonas wants only 1/3 of it, we can do a little math magic. We can imagine that the pizza is divided into 6 equal parts, with 1/2 being 3 parts. Since Jonas wants 1/3 of the pizza, that would be 2 parts out of the 6. So, the answer is indeed D. Jonas will eat 2/6 of the pizza! Hope that makes you smile like a slice of pizza with extra cheese!
To find out how much of the pizza Jonas will eat, we need to multiply the fraction 1/2 by the fraction 1/3.
To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators (the numbers on top) and the denominators (the numbers on the bottom) separately. So, multiplying 1/2 by 1/3, we get:
(1/2) * (1/3) = 1/6
Therefore, Jonas will eat 1/6 of the pizza.
So, the answer to the question is C. 1/6.
