Question

The amount of money you earn varies directly to the number of pizzas you sell. If you earn $44 for selling 8 pizzas, How many pizzas do you need to sell to earn $132?

1: Set up an equation
2:Solve the problem.

Answer 1

You would need to sell 24 pizzas

Explanation

132/44= 3

Take the 3 and times it by 8

3 x 8 = 24

You would need to make 24 pizzas

Each pizza is 5.50$

So an equation for this could be

5.50x P = C

P = Pizza

and C is the cash you earned
