For lunch, Jack ate 1/4 of a pizza, which was twice as much as John ate. If Timmy ate 1/6 of a pizza more than the amount that Jack and John ate combined, then what fraction of a pizza did Timmy eat?

Timmy ate 13/24 of the pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first you need to know how much pizza Jack and John ate. We know that Jack ate 1/4 of the pizza, and that John ate half of that, so we know that John ate 1/8 of the pizza. Together, Jack and John ate (1/4 + 1/8), which equals 3/8 of a pizza. Next, we need to find how much of the pizza Timmy ate. We know that he has eaten 1/6 more of the pizza than Jack and John combined, so that would be 1/6 more than 3/8. To add 1/6 to 3/8, we need to have a common denominator. The lowest common denominator would be 24, so you would have 4/24 + 9/24. That equals 13/24, so we know that Timmy ate 13/24 of the pizza.

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.

a price of 8 bucks that's marked up by 100%   is

formula: initial price + (percent markup in fraction/decimal)(initial price)

8+(1)(8)

8+8

16

retail price is $16.

the answer is the third / last answer
