- Calculate the total number of pieces: Each pie is cut into eighths, and there are 3 pies.Total pieces=3 pies×8 pieces per pie=24 pieces\text{Total pieces} = 3 \text{ pies} \times 8 \text{ pieces per pie} = 24 \text{ pieces}
- Determine how many pieces were sold: Three-quarters of all pieces were sold.Pieces sold=34×24=18 pieces\text{Pieces sold} = \frac{3}{4} \times 24 = 18 \text{ pieces}
