Question

There will be 6 people at Ellie's pie party. She wants to bake enough pie so that each person can eat at least ​1/5 of a pie.What is the minimum number of pies Ellie should bake?

Answer 1

2 Pies. If she cuts the first pie for 5 people she only needs one more pie for the 6th person

Answer 2

she would need atleast 2 pies because she wants everyone to be able to have 1/5 of a pie and there are 6 people

6/5 is how many pieces she would need and because its asking for how many whole pies 6/5 is 1 1/5 which is more than 1 and less than 2 and because you have to make a full pie you would round up to 2
