Victor is ordering pizzas for a party. He would like to have 1/4 of a pizza for each guest. He can only order whole pizzas, not part of a pizza. If he expects 27 guests, how many pizzas should he order? (NEED ANSWER ASAP!)

7 pizzas, because you would divide 27 by 4 and get 6.75 and then round it up to 7.

Hope this helped :)

Answer:

7 pizzas.

Explanation:

Victor is ordering pizzas for a party. He would like to have 1/4 of a pizza for each guest.

He expects 27 guests, this means each guest will get one fourth of the pizza.

So, Victor must order,
(1)/(4)*27= 6.75 rounding to whole 7 pizzas.

Therefore, Victor should order 7 whole pizzas. That will be divided into 27 guests with the last one fourth part remaining.
