Let's take the weight of pie = 60gm
divided into 3 equal parts so each will weigh = 20gm
The first part is divided equally between 2 people
So each will get 10gm
The second part is divided equally among 4 people
So each will get \(\frac{20}{4}\) = 5gm
The third part is divided equally among 5 people.
So each will get \(\frac{20}{5}\) = 4gm
Ratio = \(\frac{smallest_pie}{largest_pie}\) = \(\frac{4}{10}\) = \(0.40 * 100\)%
