There is 5/6 of an apple pie left from dinner. Tomorrow, victor plans to eat 1/6 of the pie that was left. How much of the whole pie will be left after he eats tomorrow?

Verified Answer :

5/6 - 1/6 = 4/6 reduced to 2/3

Answer:- The whole pie will be left after he eats tomorrow is \(\frac{25}{36}\) of the whole pie.


Explanation:-

Pie left from dinner=\(\frac{5}{6}\)

If victor plans to eat 1/6 of the pie that was left,

The whole pie will be left = \(\frac{5}{6}-\frac{1}{6}\ of\ \frac{5}{6}\)

\(=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{1}{6}\times(\frac{5}{6})\\\\=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{5}{36}\\\\=\frac{30-5}{36}=\frac{25}{36}\)

Therefore, the whole pie will be left after he eats tomorrow is \(\frac{25}{36}\) of the whole pie.
