Parents ordered pizzas to serve at the Carnival. Each pizza was cut into 8 slices. How many pizzas had to be ordered so that 1,319 people could each have one slice?

I know 1,319/8 = 164 R7, but the remainder confuses me. Would the answer be just 164 or do I round up to 165?

TY!

Answer:

165

Explanation:

Because you can't order 7/8 of a pizza you would have to order 165 pizzas so that every body gets one slice. Hope this helped!
