Question

Tom made a vegetable pizza and a pepperoni pizza. he cut the vegetable pizza into 5 slices and the pepperoni pizza into 10 equal slices Tom's friends ate 2 slices of vegetable pizza and 4 slices of pepperoni pizza. Construct Arguments Tom says his friends ate the same amount of vegetable pizza as pepperoni pizza how could that be true?**​

Answer 1

That could be true because they are equivalent.

Explanation:

They are equivalent because one slice of the vegtable pizza is equal to 2 little slices 1/5=2/10 , 2/5 = 4/10 , 3/5 = 6/10 , 4/5 = 8/10 5/5 = 10/10 . So you basicly cut each fifth into half

Answer 2

I may not be the best at this but I believe that Tom’s friends ate the same amount of pepperoni pizza to vegetable pizza because He cut the pizza into 5 slices as to the pepperoni into 10 slices is. The fraction of Vegetable to Pepperoni is 1/2 so 2 vegetable slices is the same amount as 4 slices because the pepperoni pizza is in smaller sizes compared to the Vegetable pizza.
