A class is planning a party. A pizza restaurant cuts each pizza into 8 slices. There are 32 students. How many pizzas does the class need to order for each student to have a slice? Explain.

32/8 = ?

To find out how many pizzas the class needs to order for each student to have a slice, we need to divide the total number of slices by the number of slices each student can have.

First, let's calculate the total number of slices needed. Since there are 32 students and each student needs one slice, we multiply the number of students by the number of slices per student: 32 students × 1 slice/student = 32 slices.

Now, let's find how many pizzas are needed. Each pizza is cut into 8 slices, so we divide the total number of slices needed by the number of slices per pizza: 32 slices ÷ 8 slices/pizza = 4 pizzas.

Therefore, the class needs to order 4 pizzas for each student to have a slice.
