My question is: At his cafe, Milton sells apple pie and peach pie slices. He cuts the apple pie into 8 slices. He cuts the peach pie into 6 slices. On the weekend, 56 customers ordered apple pie slices and 48 customers ordered peach pie slices. How many pies did Milton sell during the weekend? Your thoughts:
Milton sold 56 / 8 = 7 apple pies. He sold 48 / 6 = 8 peach pies. He sold a total of 7 + 8 = 15 pies. The final answer: 15.
