Answer:

12 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Since on Thursday Glenn and Ben each ate an eight, then total they ate 2*1/8=2/8=¼

¼ of 24 pieces is equivalent to

¼*24=6 pieces

The number of pieces that remain would be 24-6=18 pieces

The one third of leftover ate rhe next day will be equivalent to

⅓ of 18

⅓*18=6 pieces

Remaining pieces next day will be 18-6=12 pieces

Therefore, only 12 pieces out of 24 original pieces remain the following day.
