Answer:

The bakery gave out 4 slices of pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first find out how many slices were in both cherry pies. We can do this by multiplying 2 by 6 and get 12. Because they gave out 8 slices, they gave away 4 slices. An equation for this would be (x equals how much pie was given away):
