Answer: Number of cheese pizzas = 6

Number of sausage pizzas =18

Number of pepperoni pizzas = 12

Number of supreme pizzas = 3

Explanation:

Let x= Number of cheese pizzas.

Number of sausage pizzas = 3x

Number of pepperoni pizzas = 2x

Number of supreme pizzas =
(2x)/(4)=(x)/(2)

Total pizzas =
x+3x+2x+(x)/(2)=39


\Rightarrow\ (13x)/(2)=39\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=(39)/(13)*2\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=6

Number of cheese pizzas = 6

Number of sausage pizzas = 3(6) = 18

Number of pepperoni pizzas = 2(6) = 12

Number of supreme pizzas =
(12)/(4)=3
