If you would like to know how many tortes are left, you can calculate this using the following steps:

five chocolate tortes - 2 5/16 tortes = 5 - 2 5/16 = 5 - 37/16 =  80/16 - 37/16 = 43/16 = 2 11/16

The correct result would be D. 2 11/16.

Leader

\(5 - 2\frac{5}{16} = \frac{80}{16} - \frac{37}{16} = \frac{43}{16}\\\\=\boxed{\bf{2\frac{11}{16}}}\)

Your final answer is D. 2 ¹¹/₁₆.
