Emma ate 6 slices of pizza

She had [tex] \frac{3}{4} [/tex] of the pizza

[tex] \frac{3}{4} = \frac{6}{1} [/tex]

To equally compare it, you must have a common denominator

[tex] \frac{6}{1} * \frac{4}{4} = \frac{24}{4} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{3}{4} = \frac{24}{4} [/tex]

The number of pizzas to multiply by 3 to get to 24 (to make it equal is 8)

So [tex] \frac{3}{4} *8= \frac{24}{4} [/tex]

Answer:

So that means there was 8 slices but she ate 6 

[tex] \frac{6}{8} [/tex] is the fraction for it
If she at 6 slices and she ate 3/4 divide 6 and 3 and the answer is 2 then add 2 onto 6 and the answer will be 8 slices of pizza .
