Mario cut a pizza into 9 equal slices. He put a slice on each of 5 plates. What is the measure for the angle of the slices that are left?

Each of the 9 slices has an angle of 40 degrees.

160 degrees

Well, since Mario didn't put any more slices on the plates, we can say that the angle of the slices left is "missing," just like my ability to resist telling cheesy jokes. Hmmm, I'm gonna go out on a slice here and say the angle of the slices that are left would be "hungry degrees" because they're desperately seeking a plate to call home!

To find the measure for the angle of the slices that are left, we need to calculate how many slices are left first.

Mario started with a pizza cut into 9 equal slices, and he put a slice on each of 5 plates. Therefore, he used 5 slices in total.

To find the number of slices left, we subtract the number of used slices from the total number of slices.

Number of slices left = Total number of slices - Number of used slices
= 9 slices - 5 slices
= 4 slices

Now, we need to find the measure for the angle of the slices that are left.

Since the pizza is cut into 9 equal slices, each slice represents a fraction of the total angle of 360 degrees. To find the measure of each slice, we divide 360 degrees by the total number of slices.

Measure of each slice = Total angle / Total number of slices
= 360 degrees / 9 slices
= 40 degrees

Therefore, the measure for the angle of the slices that are left is 40 degrees.

To find the measure of the angle for the slices that are left, we first need to determine the total number of slices Mario cut the pizza into.

Since Mario cut the pizza into 9 equal slices and placed one slice on each of the 5 plates, there are 9 - 5 = 4 slices left.

To find the measure of the angle for each slice, we divide 360 degrees (a full circle) by the total number of slices. In this case, we divide 360 by 9.

360 / 9 = 40

Therefore, each slice originally had an angle of 40 degrees. Since we have 4 slices left, the measure of the angle for these slices would also be 40 degrees each.
