Question

You and two friends go to eat pizza there are two deals 10% off of 1 pizza or 30% off of 3 pizzas. Do you want to each pay separately and get 10% off of your bill or do you want to spl it the bill 3 wa

Answer 1

Explanation:

Assuming the price of 1 pizza is $x. Total number of pizzas is 3.

Considering the first deal,

10% off your pizza is 10/100 × x = 0.1x. The amount that you will pay is x - 0.1x = 0.9x

The cost of the remaining two pizzas is 2 × x = 2x

The total amount to be paid is

2x + 0.9x = $2.9x

Considering the second deal, 30% off the bill would be

30/100 × 3x = 0.9x

The amount to be paid is

3x - 0.9x = $2.1x

Therefore, I prefer the second deal
