Step-by-step explanation:Here is the step-by-step explanation for the problem: * Start with the total amount of pizza: The problem states there was 3/4 of a pizza remaining. * Fernando ate a fraction of the remaining pizza: Fernando ate 1/2 of what was remaining. This means he ate 1/2 of the 3/4 of the pizza. * Calculate the fraction of the pizza Fernando ate: To find out how much of the original pizza Fernando ate, you multiply the two fractions: 1/2 \times 3/4 * Multiply the numerators and the denominators: * Multiply the numerators: 1 \times 3 = 3 * Multiply the denominators: 2 \times 4 = 8 * Combine the results: This gives you the final fraction: 3/8Answer: Fernando ate 3/8 of the pizza.
