Answer :

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of pizza Tina eat

[tex] = \frac{1}{4} \\ [/tex]

The amount of pizza Sam eat

[tex] = \frac{1}{2} \\ [/tex]

The amount of pizza they eat together

[tex] = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} \\ [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{2}{2} + \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{1} \\ [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{2}{4} + \frac{1}{4} \\ [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{2 + 1}{4} \\ [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{3}{4} \\ [/tex]
