Word Problem: The Cooking Club made some pies to sell during lunch to raise money for a field trip. The cafeteria helped by donating three pies to the club. Each pie was then cut into six pieces and sold. There were a total of 72 pieces to sell. How many pies did the club make?
Equation (Not an expression because of the equals sign) 6(x+3)=72
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x+3)=72
