Her brothers each had 3 pieces of cake.

Answer:

Her brothers ate 2 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so first thing we know is there are 32 pieces

now let's find out how many slices the birthday girl ate

she ate 2 slices because 16x2=32 and she ate 1/16 of the birthday cake

that leaves use with 30 slices left

next we have to find out how many slice her friends ate

4 goes into 32 8 times and 3x8= 24 so her friends ate 24

30-24=6

now it says the brothers ate 1/3 of the last pieces of cake which we know is 6 slices so 1/3 oh six is 2

Her brothers ate two slices
