b.) 1/2 pizza
c.) 2/3 pizza
d.) 3/4 pizza

2.) Jensen, Miah, and Renata go out to eat at a restaurant. They each order the same meal. Jensen has a coupon for $2.25 off his meal. Miah has a coupon for $1.50 off her meal. If the total, for all three meals is $27, after applying both coupons, how much does Renata’ s meal cost, before tax?

a.) $7.75
b.) $8.00
c.) $9.00
d.) $10.25

Answer 1

For question 1:

Since each person is going to eat 1/4 of pizza and there are two of them, there are going to be 8 slices. There are 5 people eating, that's 5 slices gone, leaving 3.

It would be D.) 3/4 pizza

For question 2:

three people order the same meal. Now, if I'm correct, the meal total is AFTER the coupons were used. so that would bring total cost up to $30.75.

Divide that by 3 for all three friends:

30.75/3 = D.) $10.25
