So my brother needs some help :D

Mrs. Jones bakes pies. She always cuts each pie into 8 slices. There are 13 slices left on the counter. Write the number of pies on the counter as a mixed number and as an improper fraction. Use pictures, numbers or words to help you solve.

13slices of an 8slice pie left.
That means 13/8
How many times can 8 go into 13?
Only once. And it leaves behind 5
So 1 5/8 is your answer
