Show your work and give me the answer pls?
3/8 + 1/8 = ___
To find out how much of the pizza Emilio ate, we need to first figure out how much Marco and Ramon ate.
The pizza was divided into 8 slices. Marco ate 3/8 of the pizza, which means he ate (3/8) * 8 = 3 slices.
Ramon ate 1 slice more than Marco, so he ate 3 + 1 = 4 slices.
To find out how much Emilio ate, we subtract the slices Marco and Ramon ate from the total number of slices: 8 - 3 - 4 = 1 slice.
Therefore, Emilio ate 1/8 of the pizza, so the answer is option A.
To find out how much of the pizza Emilio ate, let's break it down step by step:
1. The pizza was divided into 8 slices.
2. Marco ate 3/8 of the pizza. So, he ate 3 slices out of 8.
3. Ramon ate 1 slice more than Marco. This means Ramon ate 3 + 1 = 4 slices out of 8.
4. Emilio ate the rest of the pizza. This means he ate 8 - 3 - 4 = 1 slice out of 8.
Therefore, Emilio ate 1/8 of the pizza, which is option A.
