Question

Each group member is permitted to consume one-third of a pizza. If there are twenty-four members in the group, how many pizzas should be ordered?

Answer 1

8

Explanation:

so they are one third of a pizza so thats 1/3 and 24 memebers so basically you just have to multiply 1/3 x 24 = 24/3 which is 8.

Answer 2

8 pizzas should be ordered.

Explanation:

To get the number of pizzas to be ordered, all we simple need to do is to multiply the numbers of the group members by the amount to be consume by each group member. That is;

Number of pizzas to be ordered = amount to be consume by each group member × number of group members.

amount to be consume by each group member =
`(1)/(3)`

Number of group members = 24

We can now proceed to insert our values into the formula

Number of pizzas to be ordered = amount to be consume by each group member × number of group members.

Number of pizzas to be ordered =
`(1)/(3)` × 24

=
`(24)/(3)`

= 8

Number of pizzas to be ordered = 8

Therefore, 8 pizzas should be ordered.
