Beyond the Answer
After Josh and Joe finished \( \frac{1}{5} \) of Grandma's apple pie, that left them with \( 1 - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{4}{5} \) of the pie. When the three friends came over, they divided this leftover \( \frac{4}{5} \) equally among themselves. So, each friend ate \( \frac{4}{5} \div 3 = \frac{4}{15} \) of the pie. Yum! Remember that fractions can be fun to work with! Just make sure when you're dividing fractions like this, you multiply by the reciprocal to avoid getting mixed up. Common mistakes often happen if you forget to keep track of the whole pie and what’s left after sharing.
