Answer:

24 slices of pizza were available to be eaten

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the number of slices of pizza available to be eaten

From the question;

a slice is 1/6 of a pizza

So the number of slices in a full pizza would be 1 divided by 1/6 = 1* 6/1 = 6 slices

In each of the pizzas, there were 6 slices;

So the number of slices in 4 pizzas would be 6 * 4 = 24 slices

So, 24 slices of pizza were available to be eaten by the girls
