A man is hired to cut cake at a party.

He was informed the day before the

party that 28 people could definitely attend the party but one person
wasn't sure if he could make it or not. To make sure everything would be
fair, he decided the cut the circular cake into slices such that if either
28 or 29 people attended the party, the cake could be distributed evenly to
all attendees. What is the minimum number of slices the cake cutter needs
to slice the cake into such that either 28 or 29 people can attend the party
and the cake can still be distributed evenly?
