Question

Candice and Peter are ordering pizza for upcoming parties from different pizza places. Candice is trying to decide how many pizzas she wants to order from Pizza in the Skye. If she orders 2 pizzas it will cost her $13.98, and if she 3 pizzas it will cost her $20.97.

Answer 1

Given,

She orders 2 pizzas which will cost her $13.98 and if she 3 pizzas it will cost her $20.97.

Solution:

For 2 pizzas it will cost her $13.98.

For 1 pizza the cost will be

`\begin{gathered} 1\text{ pizzas = }(13.98)/(2) \\ 1\text{ pizzas = \$ 6.99} \end{gathered}`

For 3 pizzas it will cost her $20.97.

`\begin{gathered} 1\text{ pizzas =}(20.97)/(3) \\ 1\text{ pizzas = \$6.99} \end{gathered}`

Thus, Candice and Peter will pay the same price for each pizza.
