Answer:

$15.69

Explanation:

Lets make an equation...

Let p = the price of one pizza.

$49.57 Divided by 3 = ?.

? = 16.523333333333_ Repeating.

Simplify it to 16.52.

16.52 is not an answer choice.

Solution:

Subtract the 2.50 by 49.57 to get 47.09.

Recreate the equation.

47.09 Divided by 3 = ?.

? = 15.693333333333_ Repeating.

Simplify it to 15.69.

p = 15.69.

Hope i helped!
