Answer: Part A - C, Part B - 12 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part A:</u>
We know that 1/4 of Meredith's sub is bigger than 1/4 of Jim's sub, so we can set up an inequality.
Let Meredith's sub size = m; Jim's = j
Therefore, 1/4*m > 1/4*j
We can multiply both sides by 4:
m > j
Thus, the correct answer is C
<u>Part B:</u>
Since he had 1/4 of it left, that means he at 1 - 1/4 of it = 3/4 of his sub.
We can calculate the value of 3/4 * 16 = 12 pieces
