You are having a pizza-making party for a number of people. You will need 6 ounces of dough and 4 ounces of sauce for each person at this party. If you used a TOTAL of 130 ounces of dough and sauce, how many ounces of sauce were used at the party?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:6 ounce of dough* 4 ounce of sauce=130ounce of dough=x

Lets represent the missing ounces as ''x''

24 =130x

divide all sides by 24

THEREFORE x=5.4 ounce of sauce
