Question

5. Mickey bought pizza and sodas for himself and four of his friends. The pizza was $17.49,

and 5 sodas were $1.19 each.
If the pizza is sliced into 10 equal slices and each person eats 2 slices and drinks one
soda, what is the cost to each person?
$2.94
® $4.13
$3.50
$4.69

Answer 1

D. is the correct option

Explanation:

There is a total of 5 people, so we can either split the pizza cost into 5, or into 10 and multiply by 2 (since each guest ate 2 slices) We'll do the first option since it's simpler.

$17.49 ÷ 5 = 3.489 or rounded up to $3.50

Next, we'll add $1.19 to $3.59 which equals $4.69

Hope this helps!
