Answer:2/3

Sharon Hines · Answer 2

Answer: 2/3 the

loaf of bread was left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Wendy sliced a loaf of bread into 12

equal slices. This means that the portion or size of each slice is 1/12.

She used 4 of the slices to

make sandwiches. This means that the portion of the loaf of bread that she used to make the sandwiches is

4 * 1/12 = 4/12 = 1/3

Therefore, the fraction of the

loaf of bread that was left is

1 - 1/3 = 2/3
