    4/8 = 1/2

    3/6 = 1/2

    1/2 = 1/2

    Mika ended up with 4 slices of chocolate and 3 slices of vanilla.

    Further explanation.

    1/8 is not equal to 1/6

    2/8 = 1/4 is not equal to 2/6 = 1/3

    3/8 is not equal to 3/6 = 1/2

    4/8 = 1/2 IS equal to 3/6 = 1/2

    4/8 = 1/2 is not equal to 4/6 = 2/3

    5/8 is not equal to 5/6

    6/8 = 3/4 is not equal to 6/6 = 1

    8/8 = 1 is equal to 6/6 = 1

    The minimum fraction what they are equal is 1/2 of each.
