Mr. Howe ate 1/3 of a pizza and then Mr. Kurt ate 1/8 of the same pizza. How
much of the pizza has been eaten? *

Step One: We need to convert 1/3 and 1/8 so both have the same denominator, so we need to find the a number that is able to be multiply by 3 and 8 for the process.

Step Two: 1/3 x 8= 8/24 and 1/8x3= 3/24

Step Three: Add our new fractions: 3/24+8/24= 12/24

Step Four: Subtract 12 by 24: 24-12= 12; our answer is 12/24 or half the pizza was eaten

I hope I've help!
