Question

You are having a small party and the Pizza driver drops

Answer 1

You have 43/8 pizza slices

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{43}{8\\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 8 slices in each of the 5 boxes, we will multiply. 8 x 5 = 40

So there are 40 slices of pizza from the delivery. And because there are 3 extra slices from the night before in fridge, add those. 40 + 3 = 43.

8 will be the denominator because it is the common number of slices in a box of pizza, 43 will be the numerator to make the improper fraction.

So the amount of pizza as an improper fraction is $\frac{43}{8\\}$
