How can you cut a doughnut into eight equal pieces with only three cuts of a knife?
To cut a doughnut into eight equal pieces with three cuts, start by making the first cut horizontally through the center, which will create two equal halves. Next, make a vertical cut down the center, intersecting the first cut, resulting in four equal quarters. Finally, make a third cut horizontally again, but this time through the middle of the doughnut's height, which will divide each of the four quarters into two equal pieces, yielding a total of eight equal pieces.
How do you cut a pizza into 5 pieces?
To cut a pizza into five pieces, start by making a straight cut through the center of the pizza, dividing it into two equal halves. Then, make another cut from the center to the edge, creating a wedge, and repeat to create a total of four equal wedges. Finally, take one of the wedges and cut it in half, resulting in five pieces in total. This method ensures that all pieces are relatively equal in size.
Why is one third greater than one fourth?
When something is cut into equal pieces, (think of a pie), the pieces are larger the fewer pieces there are. If the pie is cut in half, that is an entire HALF of the pie one has to eat. But if the pie is cut into three equal pieces, there are more pieces, but they are smaller. So, one fourth of the pie would be even smaller because you are getting ONE piece of a pie that is cut into FOUR pieces. The bottom number of the fraction is how many equal sized pieces there are, and the top number is how many you are getting.
Why is 4 tenths not equal to 4 hundredths?
Imagine that you have a pie. If you cut that pie into 10 equal pieces and take four of them, it will be a lot more pie that if you cut the pie into 100 equal pieces and take four of them. If you cut the pie into 10 pieces, each piece is a tenth of the pie. If you cut the pie into one hundred pieces, each piece will be a hundredth of the pie. You can really only tell which fraction is greater when they have the same denominator. 4/10 = 40/100. That's ten times greater than 4/100
How do you cut a square cake into twelve equal parts with four cuts?
Cut the cake lengthwise and then crosswise. Stack the four pieces and then cut crosswise at one third the length and again at two-thirds the length. Done!
Why are fourths bigger than tenths?
Fourths are much bigger than tenths. They are so much bigger that it only takes FOUR of them to make one whole something. Tenths are smaller; it takes TEN of them to make the same whole something. Make 2 identical strawberry rhubarb pies. Cut one into FOUR equal pieces. Cut the other into TEN equal pieces. If you give out a piece from the one cut into 4 pieces, and a piece from the one cut into 10 pieces, which piece will be larger? The first pie is cut into fourths, and the second is cut into tenths.
Cutting a cake into 16 pieces with 5 cuts?
You can cut a cake into 16 pieces with 5 cuts by first making a cross-shaped cut dividing the cake into four equal pieces, then cut each of the four pieces in half horizontally and vertically with the last cut.
What is 1 quarter of a pie?
Cut a pie into four equal pieces. Each piece is one quarter of a pie.
If it takes five minutes to cut across a log how long will it take to cut a five- foot log into five equal pieces?
To cut a 5-foot log into 5 equal pieces, you would need to make 4 cuts to create 5 equal sections. If it takes 5 minutes to make one cut across the log, you would need a total of 4 cuts, so it would take 20 minutes to cut the 5-foot log into five equal pieces.
