- [0](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/254-pizzas-for-a-crowd/0/) — A large pizza is cut into 8 slices.
- [1](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/254-pizzas-for-a-crowd/1/) — To find how many pizzas to order, count all the slices people will eat, then see how many pizzas of 8 that needs.
- [2](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/lessons/254-pizzas-for-a-crowd/2/) — If the slices do not fill the last pizza, you still need one more whole pizza: 9 children × 2 slices = 18 slices; 2 pizzas give 16, too few, so order 3.
