I went online and search google images and came up with two images for this assignment they are below



1.      The first pizza there are a total of six slices and one has been eaten, therefore there are five slices left, the fraction is 5/6.
2.      The first pizza, if five slices are left, only one is left, therefore the fraction for how many slices that have been eaten is 1/6.
3.      The second pizza, there is a total of three slices and two have not been eaten yet, therefore one has been eaten and the fraction is 1/3.
4.      The second pizza there is a total of three slices and one has been eaten, therefore there are two slices left, the fraction is 2/3.
5.      Total the two pies equal nine slices and three have been eaten, therefore there are six slices left, the fraction is 3/9 reduced to 1/3 of the pie.

6.      If six slices are left then the fraction of slices left is 6/9 reduced to 2/3




This pizza has a total of ten slices. It is half pepperoni and half cheese
1.      Five slices are pepperoni and five slices are cheese, if there is a total of ten slices each topping fraction is 5/10 reduced to ½
2.      If I eat two slices both pepperoni I would eat out of the pepperoni slices 2/5 of the pepperoni and 2/10 of the entire pie reduced to 1/5
3.      If I eat three slices one pepperoni and two cheese, out of the pepperoni slices I would eat 1/5 of the pepperoni slices leaving 4/5 left and 1/10 of the entire pizza pie leaving 9/10 left, out of the cheese slices if I eat two of the five cheese slices there are three left 2/5 of the cheese slices and 2/10 of the entire pie combined I have eaten 3/10 of the entire pie in total leaving 7/10 of the pie left.
4.      If I eat three pepperoni slices and two cheese slices I have eaten 5/10 of the entire pie reduced to 1/2 also leaving half the pie left. Out of the pepperoni slices, I have eaten three out of the five slices (3/5) leaving 2/5 left of the pepperoni slices and out of the cheese slices, I have eaten two out of the five slices (2/5) leaving 3/5 left out of the cheese slices
5.      If I just eat one slice of pepperoni and one slice of cheese, I have eaten two slices of the entire pie (2/10 reduced to 1/5) out of the pepperoni I have eaten 1/5 of the pepperoni slices leaving 4/5 left and out of the cheese I have also eaten 1/5 of the pie leaving 4/5 left.
