Her sister ate \( \frac{6}{5} \) of the whole cake.

Solución

To find out how much of the whole cake her sister ate, we need to calculate the fraction of the cake that her sister ate. Given: - Anna ate \( \frac{2}{5} \) of the cake. - Her sister ate \( \frac{8}{4} \) of the remaining cake. First, let's calculate the fraction of the cake that Anna ate: \[ \text{Anna's share} = \frac{2}{5} \] Next, we need to find the fraction of the cake that her sister ate. Since her sister ate \( \frac{8}{4} \) of the remaining cake, we can calculate this as follows: \[ \text{Sister's share} = \frac{8}{4} \times \left(1 - \frac{2}{5}\right) \] Now, let's calculate the fraction of the whole cake that her sister ate. Calculate the value by following steps: - step0: Calculate: \(\frac{8}{4}\left(1-\frac{2}{5}\right)\) - step1: Subtract the numbers: \(\frac{8}{4}\times \frac{3}{5}\) - step2: Divide the terms: \(2\times \frac{3}{5}\) - step3: Multiply: \(\frac{2\times 3}{5}\) - step4: Multiply: \(\frac{6}{5}\) Her sister ate \( \frac{6}{5} \) or \( 1\frac{1}{5} \) or 1.2 of the whole cake.

Beyond the Answer

Let's break it down! Anna first ate \( 2/5 \) of the cake, leaving her with \( 1 - 2/5 = 3/5 \) of the cake. Her sister then ate \( 8/4 \) of the remaining cake. Simplifying \( 8/4 \) gives us \( 2 \). However, since her sister can’t eat more than is left, we’ll calculate \( 2 \) times the remaining \( 3/5 \), which is \( 2 \times 3/5 = 6/5 \). Since this is more than the remaining cake, it seems like a mistake in the problem unless that’s meant in a playful way! So, let’s adjust our calculations: her sister can eat all of that remaining \( 3/5 \), which means she actually can eat the entire \( 3/5 \) of the whole cake! Isn’t math fun?
