A meat company cuts slices of pepperoni with thickness of 3/8 inch if the stick of pepperoni is 12 inches long how many slices can be made with one stick
One 12-inch-long stick of pepperoni can yield 32 slices cut 3/8 of an inch thick. To determine how many slices, one divides 12 by 3/8. This process is the same as multiplying 12 by 8/3, which is 96/3 or 32.
