Question

Ben has 9 pizza’s with 8 slices each. 59 were eaten. How many slices are left?

Answer 1

13 slices.

Explanation:

To find your total amount of slices at the start, multiply your pizzas by your slices.

`9*8=72`

Next, find the difference between your total amount of slices and the amount of slices which have been eaten.

`72-59=13`

13 slices are left.

Answer 2

13 because 9 pizzas with 8 slices each would mean you multiply to find the total number of slices (8x9=72) and if you eat 59 of those 72 you are left with 13
