    Answer: Hello there!

    We know that each pie was cut into six pieces, and there are a total of 72 pieces, If we want to know how many pies there are, we need to divide the total amount of pieces by the number of pieces in each pie; this is:

    72/6 = 12 pies.

    So there are 12 pies, and we know that the cafeteria contributed whit 2 pies, then the club make the other 12 - 2 = 10 pies.

    The answer is 10 pies. If each pie is cut into 6 slices, then all you have to do is divide 72 by six. The answer would be twelve. Because two of those pies were not made by the club, the answer is 10 pies
