A) 50,000 slices
B) 12,500 slices
C) 25,000 slices
D) 100,000 slices

Answer 1

There are 25,000 slices of pepperoni in the five delivery trucks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can calculate the total number of slices of pepperoni in the five delivery trucks by multiplying the number of crates, boxes, pizzas, and slices of pepperoni together.

1. Each truck carries 10 crates, so there are a total of 10 crates * 5 trucks = 50 crates.
2. Each crate contains 25 boxes, so there are a total of 25 boxes * 50 crates = 1250 boxes.
3. Each box contains 1 pizza, so there are a total of 1 pizza * 1250 boxes = 1250 pizzas.
4. Each pizza contains 20 slices of pepperoni, so there are a total of 20 slices * 1250 pizzas = 25,000 slices.

Therefore, there are 25,000 slices of pepperoni in the five delivery trucks.
