A calzone is divided into 40 equal pieces.violet and ben ate 1/8 if the calzone on tuesday the next day ben ate 1/5 of the calzone that was left over how many of the pieces of the original calzone remain explain to your reasoning

Respuesta :

Answer:

28 pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 of 40 is 5. Subtract that five (the five that they ate) from 40, leaving you with 35. It says the next day, Ben ate 1/5 of what was left. He ate 1/5 of 35 which is 7. He ate 7 pieces. Subtract this from 35 and you're left with 28 pieces of calzone.
