Respuesta :
Cyndi does have enough pizza for the meeting because she ends up 8 slices of pizza left.
She ate 1/6 of the pizza which left her with 10 slices left (she ate two slices of the 12).
Then her brother ate 1/5 of the pizza which means that he also ate two slices (because 1/5 of 10 is 2).
That means she has 8 slices left: enough for her meeting.

Answer:
Thus, she has enough pizza left for the meeting.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that, Cyndi cut pizza in 12 pieces.
Also, She ate 1/6 of pizza yesterday afternoon.
⇒ She ate = [tex]12\times\frac{1}{6} = 2\ \text{pieces}[/tex]
Her Brother ate 1/5 of left pizza
⇒ Her Brother ate = [tex]10\times\frac{1}{5} = 2\ \text{pieces}[/tex]
Then she has left pieces of pizza = 12 - (2 + 2) = 8 pieces
And also that much pieces she wants for the club meeting.
Thus, she has enough pizza left for the meeting.
