Answer:
[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] 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 = [tex]2[/tex]
Slices of cake eaten by Ishan = [tex]1[/tex]
Slices remaining = [tex]1[/tex]
Total number of Slices = [tex]\text{Slices of cake eaten by Vanessa}+\text{Slices of cake eaten by Ishan}+\text{Slices remaining}[/tex]
= [tex]2+1+1[/tex]
= [tex]4[/tex]
Total number of Slices Eaten = [tex]\text{Slices of cake eaten by Vanessa}+\text{Slices of cake eaten by Ishan}[/tex]
= [tex]2+1[/tex]
= [tex]3[/tex]
Fraction of Slice eaten = [tex]\frac{\text{Total number of slices eaten}}{\text{Total number of slice}}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Therefore the fraction of slice eaten is [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
