    A pizza was divided into eight equal parts. Simmi ate \[\frac{1}{8}\] of the pizza, Ruhi ate\[\frac{3}{8}\] of the pizza and Sonali ate \[\frac{1}{8}\] of the pizza. Which of the following figures shows the part of the pizza left, if the eaten part of the pizza is shaded?

    A)                        

    B)  

    C)             

    D)  

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Total number of equal parts of pizza =8.                           Fraction of pizza eaten by Simmi, Ruhi and Sonali \[=\frac{1}{8}+\frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{8}=\frac{5}{8}\]       \[\therefore \] Part of pizza left \[=1-\frac{5}{8}=\frac{8-5}{8}=\frac{3}{8}\] Figure in option (c) shows 3 unshaded parts of 8 equal parts. So, option (c) is correct.
