Bill and Gina each ate a half of their own pizza.bill ate more pizza than Gina.Draw a picture and explain how that is possible
I still don't get it.
To illustrate how Bill ate more pizza than Gina even though they both ate a half, we can imagine their pizzas as different sizes. Let's draw two circles to represent the pizzas.
First, draw a circle to represent Bill's pizza. Label it as "Bill's pizza." Then draw an arrow pointing towards the pizza to indicate that Bill ate more.
Next, draw a slightly smaller circle to represent Gina's pizza. Label it as "Gina's pizza."
Now, draw a line that divides each pizza in half horizontally. You can label the halves as "Bill's half" and "Gina's half" accordingly.
To show that Bill ate more of his pizza, shade in more area in Bill's half than in Gina's half. This shading indicates that Bill's half is larger than Gina's half even though they each ate a half.
Finally, add an equal sign (=) between the two pizzas to signify that they both ate a half, but Bill's half was larger.
This visual representation demonstrates that even though Bill and Gina both ate a half of their own pizza, Bill's half was proportionally bigger than Gina's half.
To understand how Bill could eat more pizza than Gina, we can visualize this situation using a diagram. Let's represent the whole pizza as a circle.
1. Draw a large circle to represent the whole pizza.
2. Divide the circle in two equal halves. This will create two semicircles.
3. Label one semicircle as "Bill" and the other as "Gina."
4. Next, divide Bill's semicircle into two equal halves. Each half represents the fraction of the pizza that Bill ate. Label these halves as "Bill's portion 1" and "Bill's portion 2."
5. Now, divide Gina's semicircle into two equal halves as well. Each half represents the fraction of the pizza that Gina ate. Label these halves as "Gina's portion 1" and "Gina's portion 2."
Here is a textual representation of the diagram:
| |
Bill's Bill's
Portion1 Portion2
| |
______|_________
| |
Gina's Gina's
Portion1 Portion2
| |
In this diagram, each person, Bill and Gina, ate exactly half of a pizza, as indicated by the semicircles labeled "Bill" and "Gina." However, Bill managed to eat more pizza than Gina by consuming both of his portions, labeled "Bill's portion 1" and "Bill's portion 2." Gina, on the other hand, only ate her two portions, labeled "Gina's portion 1" and "Gina's portion 2." This is how Bill can end up eating more pizza than Gina, even though they both started with an equal amount.
