Answer:

they made 5 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

total sold = 40

3 pies from the cafeteria times 5 cut pieces = 15

40 - 15 = 25

25 / 5 = 5

the expression is 5x + 15 = 40

5 is how many slices were cut

15 is the slices from the 3 from the cafeteria

40 is how many were sold

5 is how many were made
