      Why does the number of slices present before bob came divided by 3/4 equal the total number of slices in the pizza?

      You divide because in the original equation in my prior post, the "number of slices in the whole pizza" is multiplied by 3/4:

      We want to solve for the number of slices in the whole pizza, so we want to get the "whole pizza" by itself. That is why we divide by 3/4.

      I hope this helps!

      Happy Learning,
