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?
