Aiden had 3/5 of an apple pie. He gave 3/4 of what he had to his friend Brianna what fraction of the whole pie did Brianna get?

Aiden had \(\frac{3}{5}\) of an apple pie. He gave \(\frac{3}{4}\) of what he had to Brianna. To find out what fraction of the whole pie Brianna received, we multiply the fraction Aiden had by the fraction he gave to Brianna:

\[
\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3 \times 3}{5 \times 4} = \frac{9}{20}
\]

So, Brianna received \(\frac{9}{20}\) of the whole pie.
