A pizza is cut into 8 equal parts. If John eats 3/8 of the pizza and Jane eats 1/4 of the pizza, what fraction of the pizza is left?
Answer: B
First, find the total fraction of the pizza eaten.
Jane eats 1/4, which is equivalent to 2/8.
Total eaten = Fraction John ate + Fraction Jane ate = \(3/8 + 2/8 = 5/8\).
The whole pizza is 1, or 8/8.
Fraction left = \(8/8 - 5/8 = 3/8\).
