Explanation:

So he sold 33.

29 had pepperoni and of these 29, 15 had also sausage. SO first, to find out how many pepperoni pizzas only he sold you have to substract.

29-15= 14

14pepperoni pizzas

15 pepperoni and sausage pizzas.

Now we add 14 + 15 = 29

Now we do 33-29= 4

So the final answer to the question is:

10 pizzas more
