Of 450 lunches sold at school on Thursday, 40% were hamburgers
and the rest were pizza. How many more pizza lunches were sold than
hamburgers? Explain how you found your answer.

Answer 1

Answer: 90

Explanation:

Total number of lunches sold = 450

Number of hamburgers = 40% of the total , that is

number of hamburgers = 40/100 x 450 = 180

number of pizza = 450 - 180 = 270

Therefore , the number of pizza lunches sold more than hamburgers will be

270 - 180 = 90

Therefore : 90 more pizza lunches were sold than hamburgers.
