The Cooking Club made some pies to sell during lunch to raise money for a field trip. The cafeteria helped by donating two pies to the club. Each pie was then cut into five pieces and sold. There were a total of 45 pieces to sell. How many pies did the club make?

PLEASE HELPPP

So if they're giving 2 pies to each group, you wanna take those 2 pies. And each pie is cut into 5 pieces. there's a total of 45 cuts. So do 45 ÷ 2. And you get 22.5
