It’s Thanksgiving time and Charlotte’s relatives are coming over for dinner! Everyone is going to bring something to eat!
Grandma asks Charlotte to cut the pumpkin pie so that everyone can have a piece. First, Charlotte decides to find out how many people are at her house.
Charlotte counts 8 family members in her house. She cuts the pie into 8 pieces.
Charlotte gives the first piece to Grandma. What fraction of the piedoes Grandma have?
Grandma has 1 piece of pie out of 8 total pieces. She has 1/8 of the pie.
Charlotte gives away 3 more pieces. What fraction of the pie is left?
Charlotte has given away 4 pieces. There are 4 pieces left. 4/8 of the pie is left.
Charlotte gives a piece to her mom and dad. Now she has given away 6 pieces in all. What fraction of the pie is left?
Charlotte has given away 6 pieces out of 8 total pieces. So 2/8 of the pie is left over.
Charlotte gives a piece to her uncle. Now there is 1 piece left and it is for her! She sits down at the table and takes a big bite! Charlotte loves Thanksgiving!
