= [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] of the total dough
[tex]\boxed {= \frac{5}{8} \times 17 = \frac{85}{8} ounces}[/tex]
so [tex]\frac{85}{8}[/tex] ounces to make pizza, the amount to make calzone is
[tex]\boxed { 17 - \frac{85}{8} = \frac{136-85}{8} = \frac{51}{8} }[/tex]
From the above calculation we find out that the dough to make pizza is [tex]\frac{85}{8}[/tex] ounces and the dough to make calzones is [tex]\frac{51}{8}[/tex] ounces.
The difference =
[tex]\boxed {\frac{85}{8} - \frac{51}{8} = \frac{34}{8} = 4 \frac{2}{8} = 4\frac{1}{4} }[/tex]
So the difference between two dough is [tex]4\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ounces
