It takes 42 cherries to make a cherry pie. If a chef bought 444 cherries, the last pie would need how many more cherries?

So you do 444 divided by 42 which = 10 remainder 6 and 42 - 6 = 36 so that's how many cherries there would be for the last pie so you would need 6 more which is ur answer ;)

If a chef bought 444 cherries and you would like to know how many more cherries would the last pie need, you can calculate this using the following steps:

444 / 42 = 74 / 7 = 10 4/7 pies

4/7 * 42 = 24 cherries

42 - 24 = 18 more cherries

Result: The last pie would need 18 more cherries.
