Lili a mangé quelle fraction du pâté entier si elle a mangé la moitié de $\frac{3}{8}$ du pâté?

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. Lili has $\frac{3}{8}$ of a chicken pie remaining.
2. Lili eats half of this remaining portion.

STEP 2

To find the fraction of the whole pie that Lili eats, we need to multiply the remaining fraction of the pie by the fraction that Lili eats.
$Fraction\, Lili\, eats = Remaining\, fraction \times Fraction\, consumed\, by\, Lili$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the remaining fraction of the pie and the fraction consumed by Lili to calculate the fraction of the whole pie that Lili eats.
$Fraction\, Lili\, eats = \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{1}{2}$

STEP 4

Multiply the numerators together and the denominators together to find the fraction of the pie that Lili eats.
$Fraction\, Lili\, eats = \frac{3 \times 1}{8 \times 2}$

STEP 5

Calculate the product of the numerators and the product of the denominators.
$Fraction\, Lili\, eats = \frac{3}{16}$
Lili eats $\frac{3}{16}$ of the entire chicken pie.
