Question

7. A 16-inch pizza is cut into 8 equal slices. If

Thomas ate 3 slices, approximately how
many square inches of pizza did she eat?

Answer 1

Answer: 6 square inches

Explanation:

Since the pizza is 16 inches and there is 8 slices divide.

16 inches ÷ 8 slices = 2 inches per slice

Each slice is 2 inches.

Since each slice is 2 inches multiply by 3 slices to get how many square inches she ate.

2 inches per slice x 3 slices = 6 square inches

Therefore she ate 6 square inches of pizza.
