William can eat 3 slices of pizza in 5 minutes. If he continues to eat at the same rate, how long will it take him to eat the whole pizza, which has 12 slices of pizza? How many slices can he eat in half of an hour?

Answer:

William can eat 18 slices of pizza in half of an hour.

William can eat a whole box of pizza in 20 minutes.

Explanation:

30 minutes in half of an hour, 30/5 is 6.

3 slices in 5 mins

3 times 6 is 18.

----------------------------------

3 slices ---> 12 slices

x4

5 mins---> 20 mins

x4
