Vanessa ate 2 slices of cake. ishaan ate 1 slice. if there were 1 slice remaining and all the slices were the same size, what fraction of the cake was eaten?

Verified Answer :

so 2 ate by Vanessa + 1 slice ate by Ishaan make 3 + 1 slice reaining so total was 4 slices 
and from this result that was eaten 3 slices so this mean that this is a 3/4 part eaten 

hope this will help you

Answer:

\(\frac{3}{4}\) part of cake was eaten

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Vanessa ate 2 slices of cake. ishaan ate 1 slice. there were 1 slice remaining.

To Find: If all the slices were the same size, what fraction of the cake was eaten.

Solution:

Slices of cake eaten by Vanessa = \(2\)

Slices of cake eaten by Ishan =  \(1\)

Slices remaining                   =   \(1\)

Total number of Slices     =    \(\text{Slices of cake eaten by Vanessa}+\text{Slices of cake eaten by Ishan}+\text{Slices remaining}\)

                                           =  \(2+1+1\)

                                           =   \(4\)

Total number of Slices Eaten = \(\text{Slices of cake eaten by Vanessa}+\text{Slices of cake eaten by Ishan}\)

                                                 = \(2+1\)

                                                 = \(3\)

Fraction of Slice eaten   =   \(\frac{\text{Total number of slices eaten}}{\text{Total number of slice}}\)

                                        = \(\frac{3}{4}\)

Therefore the fraction of slice eaten is \(\frac{3}{4}\)
