Answer:

the cost of pizza for 15 people is $73.9

Step-by-step explanation:

a pizza party for 15 and each person will eat 4 slices.

meaning the 15 people will eat 4 x 15 = 60 slices

Since each pizza will cost you $14.78 and will be cut into 12 slices.

`1 pizza = 12 slices = $ 14.78

60 slices = (14.78 x 60) / 12 = 886.8 /12 = $73.9the cost of pizza for 15 people is $73.9
