Question

A group of three friends order a combo meal which includes two slices of pizza and a drink. Each drink is prices at $2.50. If the combined total is 31.50, how much is the cost of a pizza?

Answer 1

Answer: $8

Explanation:

So multiply $2.50 by 3 to get the total price of drinks. This is $7.50.

Minus 7.50 from 31.50 which gives you $24

Divide 24 by 3 to find the cost of one pizza.

This gives you $8

Answer 2

$4 per slice

Explanation:

D + 2P x 3 = 3D + 6P

2.50 x 3 = 7.50

Drinks = $7.50

31.50 - 7.50 = $24

$24 / 6 = 4
