Question

A local Target store bought 90 pizzas at Pizza Hut for its holiday party. Each guest ate 1/6 of a pizza and there was no pizza left over. How many guests did Target have for the party?

Answer 1

By taking a quotient, we will see that the number of guests is 540.

How to find the number of guests?

Because we know that each guest ate a fixed amount of pizza, and there was no pizza left, we know that the number of guests will be equal to the quotient between the total number of pizzas bought, and the amount of pizza that each guest ate.

This is:

$N = \frac{90}{1/6}$

We can rewrite that quotient as:

$N = \frac{90}{1} / \frac{1}{6} = \frac{90*6}{1*1} = 540$

So the number of guests is 540.
