Answer: He can feed 6 people.


Explanation:

1. You have the following information given in the problem:

- Azul orders 5 veggie pizzas.

- Everyone can eat
(5)/(6) of a pizza.

2. Therefore, to calculate the number of people he can feed (which you can call
x), you can divided 5 pizzas by
(5)/(6) of a pizza, as following:


x=(5)/((5)/(6))\\x=6

3. Therefore, he can feed 6 people.
