B.) 4 remainder 2.

If you used a calculator it's written as 4 2/7

Diego Gross · Answer 2

A. 2r (and each person gets 4 slices)

Step-by-step explanation:

By seeing how many times you can put 7 into 30 you can determine the number of slices each person will get.

7 x 2 = 14, you can still fit 7 more into this without going over 30

7 x 3 = 21, you can still fit 7 more into this without going over 30

7 x 4 = 28, you can't fit 7 into this anymore

30-28=2, remainder 2
