The question is incomplete and the value or fraction of the amount of fraction of pizza eaten for dinner isnt Given. Assume the fraction of pizza eaten for dinner = p

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

To solve the problem above;

Amount of pizza eaten for dinner = (fraction eaten * total size of pizza)

Amount of pizza eaten for dinner = 16 * p = 16p

Amount of pizza crust left :

(Total size of pizza crust - Amount of pizza eaten for dinner)

Amount of pizza crust left = 16 - 16p

Note that this is just an hypothetical solution because the value represented as p was omitted in the question.

Simply substitute p in the solution with it's exact value to obtain the exact amount of pizza crust left.
