There are 12 slices total. He ate all 6 of one and 2 of the other, for a total of 8 slices. Thus he ate 8/12 (or 2/3) of the total slices.

My ceiling fans stops after being on for 4 to 5 hours. Power is still on. I turn power off and back on and it runs again. Could this be the capacitor going bad?

Most motors use a start capacitor to create phase shift to get motor turning. So i would think once in motion it will continue to turn.
Now having said that what keeps fan turning! The system relies on electromagnets which pull the motor into next section ( think of a cut pie with separation between slices).
So what can cause this sequence to stop.
1. You have a quick loss of power.
2. You have a motor thermocouple (prevents burn out at a raised temperature)
since it restarts, although you mentioned after 4-5 hours of running, there was no mention how long it sat off. I would think this is not problem.
Power loss! Do lights flicker when AC comes on?
is the on off switch a pull chain or wall-switch?
If a flicker then power might be interrupted just as the fan motor has rotated in to pie slice dead zone. Which means slim that all flickers would effect, but could.
A wall switch can build up resistance or have poor contacts that by way of vibration lose power for a split second.
Remember cap.is used to start, so follow the path for quick power loss.
Also check connections at fan to wiring, a loose connection can open due to vibration, then settle down when off

Can I freeze unbaked fruit pie made with oil pie crust?

Yes you can no problem. Bake from Frozen for an hour at 350'F.

Better if the crust is all butter! Freeze if and grate it into the flour, add water and cut in with a knife.

A pizza is divided into 8 equal parts. what is the area of one slice if its radius is 6 inches?

Hello and Welcome to FixYa!
Area of pizza (Combined Bread + Crust) = Area=pie * (radius)^2. If divided in 8 equal parts, Area of 1 piece=Area/8.
Area= 3.1415* (0.1524)^2 Area of 1 slice= Area/8 Concerned.

3D Extrude and Bevel in Illustrator CS 3

Chances are you have chosen 'stroke' color as 'blank/empty' in the first pie chart, and 'stroke' color as 'black' in subsequent charts, by mistake. So as a result the charts are having a black outline. You simply have to select 'stroke' or 'outline' color as blank as you did in the first chart. Colors can be chosen in the 'swatches' palette, either for 'fill' or 'stroke' or both. Hope this solves the problem.
