Kim made three quiches for a party: cheese, spinach, and mushroom. The cheese quiche was cut into 8 equal pieces, the spinach quiche was cut into 16 equal pieces, and the mushroom quiche was cut into 4 equal pieces. At the party, people ate 5 pieces of the cheese, 9 pieces of the spinach, and 2 pieces of the mushroom. Which quiche did people eat the most of? Identify the fractions in numerical order from greatest to least(1 point)

16 , 8 , 4 ; the cheese quiche was eaten the most
16 , 8 , 4 ; the cheese quiche was eaten the most

58 , 916 , 24 ; the cheese quiche was eaten the most
58 , 916 , 24 ; the cheese quiche was eaten the most

The correct answer is:

58, 9/16, 2/4; The spinach quiche was eaten the most

To determine which quiche was eaten the most, we need to compare the number of pieces eaten for each quiche.

The cheese quiche was cut into 8 equal pieces, and 5 pieces were eaten.
The spinach quiche was cut into 16 equal pieces, and 9 pieces were eaten.
The mushroom quiche was cut into 4 equal pieces, and 2 pieces were eaten.

Comparing the fractions, we have:
Cheese: 5/8
Spinach: 9/16
Mushroom: 2/4

Now let's order these fractions from greatest to least:
1. 9/16 (Spinach)
2. 5/8 (Cheese)
3. 2/4 (Mushroom)

Therefore, the quiche that people ate the most of is the spinach quiche.

To determine which quiche people ate the most, we need to compare the fractions of each quiche that were eaten.

First, let's calculate the fraction of each quiche that was eaten:

- Cheese quiche: People ate 5 pieces out of 8 pieces, so the fraction eaten is 5/8.
- Spinach quiche: People ate 9 pieces out of 16 pieces, so the fraction eaten is 9/16.
- Mushroom quiche: People ate 2 pieces out of 4 pieces, so the fraction eaten is 2/4.

Now let's compare these fractions in numerical order from greatest to least:

1. 9/16
2. 5/8
3. 2/4

Therefore, the fractions in numerical order from greatest to least are 9/16, 5/8, and 2/4.

Lastly, since the fraction 9/16 corresponds to the spinach quiche, we can conclude that the spinach quiche was eaten the most.

So, the correct answer is:

9/16, 5/8, 2/4 ; The spinach quiche was eaten the most
