To determine how much more pizza Billy ate compared to Lisa, we need to subtract the amount Lisa ate from the amount Billy ate.Step 1: Write down the amounts each person ate.Billy ate $\frac{3}{4}$ of a pizza.Lisa ate $\frac}{2}$ of a pizza.Step 2: Find a common denominator for the fractions. The least common denominator for 4 and 2 is 4.Step 3: Convert Lisa's fraction to have the same denominator as Billy's fraction.Lisa's fraction $\frac{1}{2}$ is equivalent to $\frac{2}{4}$ when we multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2.Step 4 Lisa's amount from Billy's amount.\[\frac{3}{4} - \frac{2}{4} = \frac{3-2}{4} = \frac{1}{4}\]Step 5: Simplify the fraction if necessary.The fraction $\frac{1}{4}$ is already in its simplest form.Step 6: Highlight the accurate answer.Billy ate $\frac{1}{4}$ pizza more than Lisa.Answer: $\frac{1}{4}$ pizza.
