cut each slice with a 1.2 degrees central angle
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.
If you've bought 4 pieces of pie, then you want it cut into the fewest possible number of pieces. Go to the pie that was cut into only 6 pieces, not the one that was cut into 11 pieces.
No. One third is 1/3 and one ninth is 1/9. A ninth is much smaller, three thirds is equal to one ninth - 3/9=1/3. Another way to look at it is like a pie. If you cut one pie into three pieces and one pie into nine and took a piece from each. The piece that you took from the pie cut into three would be much bigger, and equal to three pieces of the pie you cut into nine.
Six.
13.5 is higher than 13.055. The .5 is the same as 5 tenths or 5/10. The .055 is the same as 55 one thousandths or 55/1000. Like cutting pie into pieces. If you are hungry u would rather have 5 pieces of a cake cut into ten pieces versus having 55 pieces of a pie cut into 1000 pieces.

Nope. Think of it this way. Which is bigger, a piece from a pie cut into eight pieces, or a piece cut from a pie that was cut into five pieces?
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
It is not possible to cut a pie into seven pieces of equal area. Eight pieces and six pieces can both readily be done.
Cut a pie into four equal pieces. Each piece is one quarter of a pie.
because 1/2 is a pie only cut into two pieces and if you look at 1/4 it is a pie cut into 4 pieces witch means that the piece is going to be smaller. if you cut a pie into two pieces (1/2) only two people can eat, if you cut the pie into 4 pieces (1/4) then four people can eat. that's why 1/2 is bigger than 1/4.
No. One third is 1/3 and one ninth is 1/9. A ninth is much smaller, three thirds is equal to one ninth - 3/9=1/3. Another way to look at it is like a pie. If you cut one pie into three pieces and one pie into nine and took a piece from each. The piece that you took from the pie cut into three would be much bigger, and equal to three pieces of the pie you cut into nine.
Typically, a pie is cut into 6 pieces but 8 is easier. A pie of firmer consistency, like custard, stands up better when cut into 8 pieces.
Well, darling, one eighth of a pie is simply one piece out of eight equal slices of that delicious dessert. So, if you're eyeing that pie like a hawk, just cut yourself a slice and enjoy it guilt-free. Just remember, sharing is caring...but who has time for that when there's pie involved?
1/9 doubled is 2/9. Consider a pie cut into 9 pieces. 1/9 is one piece of pie. Double that top get 2 pieces of pie or 2/9.
Five. Anything cut into fifths will produce five pieces.
