You can make this into a fraction, and then simplify it.

15/10, right?

15/10 = 3/2

Then compare 3/2 to the rest of the equation

3/2 = x/16

2 * 8 = 16
so
3 * 8 = x
x = 24

Kim would put x number of pizza slices on her pizza.
So she would be putting on 24 slices on her pizza.

Varies directly as the square of the diameter
square means to multiply by itself or x^2
that means
k=x/y
in this case
x=15
y=10^2
k=15/10^2=15/100=3/20
so the new pizza is
k=x/16^2
k=3/20
3/20=x/16^2
evaluate 16^2
3/20=x/256
multiply both sides by 256
768/20=x
384/10=x
38.4=x
she should put about 38 slises
