    Each student receives 3/5 th of pie

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solution:-

    - The available pie left, P = 1 4/5

    - The pie each gets after division = x

    - There are n = 3 people (Jenny and her two friends).

    - The leftover pie is to be evenly divided between all three people. We will express the amount of pie each student receive "x" in terms of Left over pie "P":

    n*x = P

    - We will plug in the values and solve for x:

    3x = 1 4/5

    3x = 1.8

    x = 0.6 = 3/5 pie

    - Each student will receive 3/5 pie.
