Mrs. Brown’s class has 4 pizzas which have same size and shape. If each pizza is cut into 8 equal slices and one slice is given to each student, how many slices of pizza will be left over after each of the 27 students gets a slice? my life is at stake here

Answer: There will be 5 slices

Explanation:

There is 4 pizzas and there all sliced into 8and when you times 8 and 4 that gives you 32. So 32 minus 27 gives you 5. I hope this helps.:)

Answer:

There would be 5 slices left.

Explanation:

To find this, we first have to find the total number of slices. We can get this by multiplying the amount of pizzas by the number of slices on a pizza.

4 pizzas * 8 pieces = 32 pieces total

Now we can subtract the number that are eaten

32 - 27 = 5 leftover
