21

Step-by-step explanation:

Dr James ordered 56 pizzas for the teachers.

Of the pizzas ordered, 2/7 of them were pepperoni,

Number that were pepperoni = 2/7 × 56 pizzas

= 16 pizzas were pepperoni

19 were cheese , and the rest were veggie pizzas.

How many of the slices were veggie?

The number of veggie slices is calculated as:

Veggie slices = Total number of pizzas - ( Number of Pepperoni + Number of Cheese)

= 56 - ( 16 + 19)

= 56 - 35

= 21

The number of veggies is 21
