Question

Joey's pizza sells large cheese pizzas for $12.00. Each additional topping costs $0.50. Basketball Boosters bought 12 large pizzas, each with 3 toppings. There are 8 slices per pizza. How much does it cost per slice? Round to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

Answer:

169 cent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Cost of large pizza = $12

Cost of additional topping = $0.5

Number of large pizza purchased = 12

topping per large pizza = 3

Amount paid for each pizza :

(cost of pizza) + (3 * cost of topping)

($12) + (3*$0.5)

($12 + $1.5) = $13.5

Total cost of pizza:

Number of pizzas bought * cost per pizza

12 * $13.5 = $162

Number of slices per pizza = 8

Total slices = 12 * 8 = 96 slices of pizza

Cost per slice :

Total cost / total slices

$162 / 96 = $1.6875

= $1.69 = 169 cent
