[ Answer ]


\boxed{\bold{6 \ Pizzas}}

[ Explanation ]

  • Divide:
    4(1)/(2) ÷
    (3)/(4)

---------------------------------

We need to figure out how many pizzas can be made out of
4(1)/(2) pounds of dough. Each pizza takes
(3)/(4) a pound, so we need to divide.

  • Convert Mixed Number To Improper Fraction:
    4(1)/(2) =
    (9)/(2)


(9)/(2) ÷
(3)/(4)

  • Cross Multiply


(9*4)/(2*3)

  • Answer


(36)/(6)

  • Simplify

= 6


\boxed{\bold{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}}
