Answer:

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.

Explanation:

To find how many slices of pizza the teacher can hand out , you can divide 7 by 7/8 and round down the nearest whole number.

7 ÷ 7/8 = 8

8 is already a whole number. No need to round down.

The teacher can hand out pizza to 8 students.
