Question

You are hosting a party for 50 people. You are allowing for each person to have

3 slices of pizza and 2 cups of soda. A cup is equal to 8 ounces (oz). How
many pizzas and 2L bottles of soda do I have to order?

Answer 1

150 slices of pizza and 400 bottles of soda are to be ordered

Explanation:

pizza: Each person takes 3slices of pizza and 50 people take 3 in 50 places(3x50=150)

Soda: one litre is equal to 33.814ounces(oz)

A person takes 16 ounces and 50 people takes 800ounces(oz)

so therefore! 800ounces÷33.814ounces gives 23.6588litres

Answer 2

so each person has 1/4th of a pizza

you need 12.5 pizzas which you can round to 13 pizzas

you need 800 ounces of soda so 23.6 liters so you can round to 12 bottles
