Answer:

9 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we were given,

Number of pies = 3

Number of pieces cut from each pie = 6

Given total number of pieces to sell = 72

But the Number of pieces from 3 pies = 3×6

=18

so, Number of pieces the club needed to make is given = 72-18= 54

Since each pie is cut into 6 pieces

And number of extra pieces needed = 54

Then the number of pies the cooking club bake is 54/6= 9 pies

Therefore, the club bake 9pies
