If the pie is a normal circle, then an infinite number of times just like with cutting a circle in half. However, after a certain number of times, the pie will cease to have any structure and will fall apart.

How many pieces can you get when you cut a pie 4 times?

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.

Does half and half equal a whole?

Yes, take a pie and cut it in half. Separate them so they are far away from each other. Look at the first half, you know that this is one half. Look at the other, you know that this is another half. Move both pieces together so it looks like it did before you cut it.Just think of it as1= a half2= a whole.1+1=2. Two ones or two halves make a whole.Look at the pie, one half of the pie, and another half of the pie, equals one whole pie. Now, eat the pie ;)Hope this helped you understand.

If one quarter of a pie is blueberries and the rest is strawberries then If you serve 12 slices from 1 pie how many slices will be all blueberries?

It depends on how many slices are in the pie. If you cut the pie into 24 pieces, 12 slices will be half the pie, which will leave 12 slices, 6 could be blueberry and six could be strawberry. If there are a total of 12 slices in the pie, the three of the slices will be blueberry.


Which is correct One half piece of pie or one-half piece of pie?

What does a quarter of 12 mean?

You start of with a whole pie and if you cut in two equal pieces you have two half pies. If you cut the two half pie pieces in half you end up with 4 equal pieces of the original pie and these are called quarters. So to get a half you divide by 2 To get a quarter you divide by 4 Thus 12/4 = 3 or 4*3=12 Thus a quarter of 12 is 3.

Cut each pie into eight pieces (cut in half, turn 1/4 turn, cut in half again, turn 1/8th turn, cut in half, turn 1/4 turn, and cut in half). Then, give each person five pieces.
