porkins-cheetos-o(Question) Amena ate 1/2 of a sandwich. Lavonne ate 1/2 of a different sandwich. Amena said they ate the same amount. Lavonne said Amena ate more. Could Lavonne be correct? Explain your thinking.

(My answer) Yes because the sandwich that Amena ate half of could have been bigger than the half Lavonne ate.
