To find out how many slices of pizza Mary gave away, we first need to calculate 3/8 of the total number of slices.

Step 1: Calculate 3/8 of 16 slices.
To find the answer, multiply the numerator (3) by the total number of slices (16) and divide it by the denominator (8):
(3/8) * 16 = (3 * 16) / 8 = 48 / 8 = 6

Mary gave away 6 slices of pizza to her friend.
