A pizza shop charges $2.00 for a slice that is one-eighth of a pizza and $3.00 for a slice that is one-fourth of a pizza. One day the pizza shop makes 6 pizzas. How much more money will they make if they slice all the pizzas into eighths than if they slice the pizzas into fourths?

Answer:

Explanation:

6x8=48 slices to be sold in 8ths.

2x48= $96

6x4= 24 slices to be sold in 4ths.

24x3=$72

96-72= $24

They will make 24 more dollars if they sell slices in eighths.
