assistant
How many slices did Nancy give to Joe and Darcy? ** The total number of slices she gave to Joe and Darcy is 1/2 x 8 = <<1/2*8=4>>4.
How many slices did Nancy give to Carl? ** The total slice she gave to Carl is 1/4 x 8 = <<1/4*8=2>>2.
How many slices were left? ** Therefore, the total slices left is 8 - 4 - 2 = <<8-4-2=2>>2.
