Answer: 1/9 of the cake

Step-by-step explanation:

Charlie ate 2/3 of the cake which means that what is left to give the friends is:

= 1 - 2/3

= 1/3 of the cake

This was divided equally amongst three friends so the expression would be:

= 1/3 ÷ 3

This can also be written as:

= 1/3 * 1/3

= 1/9

Each friend got 1/9 of the cake.
