Answer:

1562.5 calories

Explanation:

Shreyas ate
(5)/(8) of the entire pizza on the first day.

Entire pizza contained calories = 2,500

Therefore, Shreyas consumed calories on the first day =
(5)/(8) of 2500

=
(5)/(8) × 2500

= 0.625 × 2500

= 1,562.5 calories

Shreyas consumed 1,562.5 calories on the first day.
