If carl takes a pizza with 8 slices and has three friends eat a slice, what fraction of the pizza is left?

Ok so the wording is confusing

is it
A. 3 friends took 1 slice each (total is 3 slice) or
B. 3 friends took 1 slice total

if A, go to
if B. to to


3 slices taken
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=3
original=8
8-3=5
5=left
fraction is 5/total=5/8


taken=1
fraction is parts out of whole
what is left
left=original-taken
taken=1
original=8
8-1=7
7=left
fraction is 7/total=7/8

if 3 slices taken total then 5/8 left
if 1 slice taken totl then 7/8 left
