Question

Desmond ordered his favourite pizza with 1 2 12 slices. Sadly, he could finish only 7 5 % 75% of the whole pizza. How many pizza slices were left?

Answer 1

3 pizza slices.

Explanation:

We have been given that Desmond ordered his favorite pizza with 12 slices. Sadly, he could finish only 75% of the whole pizza.

As Desmond ate 75% of 12 slices, so left number of slices will be equal to 25% of 12 slices.

`\text{Number of pizza slices left}=(25)/(100)* 12`

`\text{Number of pizza slices left}=(1)/(4)* 12`

`\text{Number of pizza slices left}=3`

Therefore, 3 pizza slices were left.
