Tommy and his family split 8 slices of a pizza evenly. If there are a total of 6 people in Tommy's family including Tommy, What fraction of a pizza did each family member get if they share the pizza evenly

Answer: 1 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Tommy and his family divide 8 slices of a pizza equally.

Amount of pizza slice shared = 8

There are a total of 6 people.

Number of people = 6

To get the fraction of pizza gotten by each member of the family, we divide the amount of pizza by the total number of people which will give:

8 : 6 = 1 2/6 which when reduced to lowest term gives 1 1/3.

Each member and f the family will get 1 1/3 slices of pizza.
