solve the equation: the booster club of the baseball team bought pizza to sell at a concession stand. the school donated three pies to the sale. each pie was then cut into 8 pieces and sold . there were a total of 64 pieces to sell. how many pies did the booster club purchase

Booster club purchased 5 pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pies purchased by booster club be represented by n. The school also donated 3 pies to sell.

So that,

Total number of pies = n + 3

Given that there was 64 pieces of pies to sell after cutting each pie into 8 pieces.

Thus,

8( n + 3) = 64

8n + 24 = 64

8n = 64 - 24

8n = 40

Divide both sides by 8 to have,

n = 5

The number of pies purchased by booster club is 5.
