Jeff ordered 5 pizzas for his daughters birthday party. 60% of the pizzas were eaten at the party. When the party was over, Jeff ate 25% of what was left. If a pizza has 8 slices, how many did Jeff eat?
Since each pizza had 8 slices 5 • 8 = 40 slices to begin with
At the party 60% were eaten 0.60 • 40 = 24 slices eaten at the party
Since 24 slices were eaten at the party 40 – 24 = 16 slices left over after the party
Jeff ate 25% of the leftover pizza 0.25 • 16 = 4 slices that Jeff ate after the party
