Question

At a soccer championship winning party , there were 35 soccer players in attendance and 12 pizzas were ordered. Each player in line takes 3/8 of a pizza to eat. How many boys at the end of the line will not get pizza ? please show the work

Answer 1

Three boys will not get pizza at the very end of the line.

Answer 2

First you would multiply 12 and 8 to find out how many pieces are in all the pizzas I got 96. Then you do 35 times 3 to figure out how many pieces are needed. I got 105. For every three pieces that get taken away to get to 96 that’s one kid. The answer is 3 boys will not get pizza.
