Claire cut some apples into eighths. She and her friends ate all but 17 pieces. How many whole apples and parts of apples did she have left over?

So they had 17 left over and one Apple was cut into 8 slices. 8 goes into 17 2 times with one left over. So it would be 2 whole apples with 1 slice left over. So 17 slices converts to 2 wholes and 1 part (slice)
