Mr. Camron had 1/3 of a pan of lasagna represented by the shaded part of the rectangle. He cut the lasagna into 4 equal pieces and ate one piece for lunch. What fraction of the whole pan of lasagna did Mr. Camron eat for lunch?

1/12 of the pan

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 1/3 of a pan of lasagna.

You are dividing it by 4 as he cut the 1/3 pan into 4 equal pieces, so you can do 1/3 divided by 4.

A simple trick to divide a fraction from a number is to change the division sign to multiplication and flipping over the second fraction.

So 1/3 / 4

would become

1/3 x 1/4

and so it is 1/12

1/12 is your answer

Hope this helps!
