Question: 1 / 400

If a pizza is cut into 8 equal slices and 3 slices are eaten, what fraction of the pizza remains?

1/8

3/8

5/8

To find the fraction of the pizza that remains after eating 3 out of the 8 equal slices, you first determine how many slices are left. Since the pizza starts with 8 slices and 3 slices are consumed, you subtract the number of slices eaten from the total number of slices:

8 - 3 = 5 slices remaining.

Now, to express the remaining slices as a fraction of the whole pizza, you take the number of remaining slices (5) and put it over the total number of slices (8). This gives you the fraction:

5/8.

This fraction accurately represents the portion of the pizza that is still available after some slices have been eaten.
