Question

Students at a cooking school made a supersized

rectangular pizza for a class party. Lupita cut the pizza
into 3 equal pieces. Then she cut each piece into 3
equal parts two more times. Lupita needs 27 pieces of
pizza. Does she have enough pieces yet? Explain how
you know.

Answer 1

The answer is no, she does not have enough pieces. She has 18 equal pieces.

Step-by-step explanation: You know if she has enough pieces by taking each piece and dividing it by six, because Lupita cuts each piece into 3 more pieces two times, giving her 18 pieces.
