John buys a pizza the pizza is divided into 8 equal pieces. If John eats 1/4 of the pizza and he gives 1/4 of what is left over to his friend . How many pieces does he left over
After John eats 1/4 of the pizza, there are 8 pieces - 2 pieces (1/4 of the pizza) = 6 pieces left over.
He then gives 1/4 of the 6 pieces to his friend, which is 6 pieces x 1/4 = 1.5 pieces.
Since you can't have half a piece of pizza, John will give 1 whole piece to his friend.
Therefore, after giving 1 piece to his friend, John will be left with 6 pieces - 1 piece = 5 pieces of pizza.
