question 6 (1 point)
at a pizza party, 0.4 of a medium pizza was eaten.
what fraction of the pizza remains in its least terms?

Explanation:

Convert fraction of a dollar to decimal

$$ \frac{3}{4} \text{ of a dollar} = \frac{3}{4} \times \$1.00 = \$0.75 $$

Calculate remaining fraction of pizza

$$ \text{Remaining fraction} = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6 $$

Simplify remaining fraction to lowest terms

$$ 0.6 = \frac{6}{10} = \frac{3}{5} $$
