b) $10.00

d) $15.00

Answer 1

Chef Ira earned $58.50 from selling all the remaining slices of pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much money Chef Ira earned, we need to determine how many slices of pie he sold and then multiply that by the cost per slice.

There are a total of 6 1/3 pies. Each pie is divided into 1/6 slices, so we can calculate the number of slices:

6 1/3 pies * 6 slices per pie = 39 slices

Now, we can find the total earnings:

39 slices * $1.50 per slice = $58.50

Therefore, Chef Ira earned $58.50 from selling all the remaining slices of pie.
