Maria ate 1/3of a pie. her sister, rebecca, ate 1/5of that. what fraction of the whole pie did rebecca eat?

the fraction of the whole pie that Rebecca ate is 1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the size or area of the whole pie. Maria ate 1/3 of the pie. This means that the amount of pie that maria ate is 1/3 × x = x/3

Her sister,Rebecca ate 1/5 of that. This means that Rebecca ate 1/5 of the amount that Maria ate. The amount that Rebecca ate will be expressed as 1/5 × x/3 = x/15

To determine the fraction of the whole pie that Rebecca ate, we will divide the amount that Rebecca ate by the size of the whole pie. It becomes

x/15/x = x/15 × 1/x

= 1/15
