I need help with the steps to solve this type of problem. Three friends have a pie. One friend eats 1/2 of the pie, One friend eats 1/3 of what is left over of the pie. The third friend eats half of what remains of the pie. How much pie is leftover?
I understand the pie is cut in half with the first friend and then thirds with the second friend. I'm confused as to the steps to solve for the remaining part after the third friend eats 1/2 of the 2/3 remaining pie and how that relates to the whole pie.
Thank you.
