Question

Seven pizzas were ordered for a company lunch. During the lunch, 75% of the pizzas were eaten. If each pizza had 8 slices, how many slices of pizza were NOT eaten during the lunch?

Answer 1

Answer:

14 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

First, for simplicity, find the total number of slices.

7*8=56 slices

Now, multiply that by 75%, or .75.

56*.75=42 slices

Finally, to find the ones not eaten, subtract 42 from 56.

56-42=14 slices
