17 Kayla wants to give a third of a pie to
each of her 25 relatives. She has
already baked 6 pies. How many
more pies will she need to bake so
that each relative can have a third?

If Kayla wants to give 1/3 of a pie to each of her 25 relatives and has 6 pies already, to find the answer first you’d have to find out how many thirds of pies she has already, so,
6 x 3 = 18 slices of pie

(And she needs 25 slices of pie, so,)
25 - 18 = 7 slices of pie

(Turn the 7 slices into pies)
7 ÷ 3 = 2.33

(Kayla needs 2.33 more pies and so If rounded up)
2.33 pies = 3 pies

(Kayla needs)
Answer:
3 pies
