Henry ate 3/8 of a pizza for lunch. For dinner, he ate 2/3 of what was left from lunch. How much of the whole pizza did he eat for dinner?(1 point)
the answer choices are
3/8
2/3
3/4
1/2'
5/12
whats the best answer
The best answer is 3/4.
To calculate, first determine how much pizza was left after lunch:
3/8 (what Henry ate) = 5/8 (what was left)
Then, calculate how much of the whole pizza Henry ate for dinner:
2/3 (of 5/8) = 10/24 = 5/12
Therefore, Henry ate a total of 3/8 + 5/12 = 9/24 = 3/4 of the whole pizza for dinner.
