It takes 42 cherries to make a cherry pie.
If a chef bought 444 cherries and you would like to know how many more cherries would the last pie need, you can calculate this using the following steps:
444 / 42 = 74 / 7 = 10 4/7 pies
4/7 * 42 = 24 cherries
42 - 24 = 18 more cherries
Result: The last pie would need 18 more cherries.
