Peyton has 5/8 of pumpkin pie left over from thanksgiving. She eats 1/8 of the pie and her friend joy eats 1/6 of the pie. How much pie is left after Payton and joy have their pieces

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Left over pie=5/8

Payton eats=1/8 of the left over pie

Joy eats =1/6 of the left over pie

Total pie eaten by Payton and joy= 1/8+1/6

To add the fraction,

Find the lowest common multiple of 6 and 8 which is 48

Then,

divide 48 by 8 multiplied by 1 which is 6,

divide 48 by 6 multiplied by 1 which is 8

We have,

=6+8/48

=14/48

=7/24

Total pie eaten by Peyton and joy=7/24

Total pie left(after Peyton and joy share)= Total left over- total pie eaten by Peyton and joy

=5/8-7/24

=15-7/24

=8/24

=1/3
