6 x 2/5= 6/1 x 2/5= 12/5 = 2 2/5 so you need to order 3 pizzas.

Answer: 3 pizza

Explanation:

Since, According to the question,

One person can eat
(2)/(5) part of a pizza,

Therefore, 6 person can eat
(12)/(5) part of a pizza,

Since,
(12)/(5) = 2.4

But number of pizza must be a whole number,

Thus, the minimum number of pizza they can eat = 3
