Complete the chart.

Answer 1

Explanation:

I am not sure how much to answer. I'll confine myself to the written question.

Equation

24 students 1 0iece of pizza each = 25.65

1 piece of pizza = x

Set up a proportion

24 students are given 24 pieces of pizza -- Cost 25.65

1 student 1 piece of pizza = x

Solution

24 / 1 = 25.65/x Cross Multiply

24x = 1 * 25.65 Divide both sides by 24

24x/24 = 25.65/24

x = 1.07 / slice.
