Question

Ginny is making homemade pizzas for her family. The recipe makes 70 ounces of dough, but she made more that to ensure she had enough to feed everyone. She plans to freeze 28 ounces for next week, and the rest of the dough will be split evenly to make 3 pizzas. A. Write an inequality to represent the maximum weight of each pizza. Response area b. Each of Ginny's pizzas will weigh more than Response area ounces.

Answer 1

14 ounce

Explanation:

Given that:

Ounces of dough used in making recipe = 70 ounces

Number of ounces frozen = 28 ounces

Number of pizzas made from dough left = 3

Number of ounces left = total made - number frozen

Number of ounces left = 70 - 28 = 42

Weight of pizza made :

Number of ounces left / number of Pizzas made

42 / 3 = 14

Hence, maximum weight of each pizza made will weigh more than 14 ounces
