Respuesta :

Answer:

2 people can be fed by a large 16 inch pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a simple rule of three.

This 8-inch pizza is the right size for one person.

So each 8 inch pizza feeds one person.

How many people can be fed by a large 16-inch pizza?

8 inch - 1 person

16 inches - x people

[tex]8x = 16[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{16}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

2 people can be fed by a large 16 inch pizza.
