Answer 2

I find an easy way to find percentage is to convert the fraction to a decimal and then that decimal to a fraction. (It probably sounds worse than it is) They ate 6 out of 8 pieces of pie, so the fraction would be 6/8. To change that into a fraction, you can divide the numerator (6) by the denominator (8) and that gives you the decimal. Then, I believe, you multiply the decimal by 100 and that should be your percentage :)

Answer 3

Oh wait a second I may be wrong

Answer 4

Oh never mind. The final step I think should be subtracting your percentage from 100 and THEN should be the answer. :)

Answer 5

i got 1.33333333333

Answer 6

For 6 / 8?

Answer 7

oops i meant 75

Answer 8

Oh okay :) So now you can subtract 75 (your percentage) from 100 (the total) and get the percentage of leftover pie.
