Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is C.


(1)/(4) = (2)/(8)\\\\

Each friend will be receiving
(2)/(8) of a pizza.


(7)/(8) - (2)/(8) - (2)/(8) - (2)/(8) = (1)/(8)

You can't give someone
(1)/(8) of a pizza, and you can't have half of a friend, so that one remains uneaten. This means that you give pizza to 3 friends.
