If you eat 2/3 of a pizza, and are left with 12 slices, how many slices are in 1/2 of the pizza?

Let's consider the number of slices of the pizza to be p. Based on the information given in the problem, \frac{1}{3}p = 12. Multiplying both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the coefficient will remove the \frac{1}{3}:

3 \cdot \dfrac{1}{3}p = 3 \cdot 12

p = 36


Half of the number of pizza slices would be 18.

if you ate 2/3 and 2/3 is 12 slices then you do 12/2 and that is 6.

then you do 6*3 to get 18**the total amount of slices** and then you do 18/2 and you get 9.

Answer=9

I apologize if this is wrong.

Glad to help though!

40 tickets were sold for a concert, some at 75 cents and the rest at $1.25. if the total raised was $42, how many had the cheape
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.25 = 125 cents.

$42 = 4200 cents

Tickets sold at 75 cents = x

Tickets sold at 125 cents = y

x + y = 40

75x + 125y = 4200

Multiply the first equation by 75

75x + 75y = 3000

75x + 125y = 4200

Subtract the the second equation from the first.

75x + 75y = 3000

- 75x + 125y = 4200

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

0 - 150y = - 1200

Divide both sides by - 150

-150y/-150 = -1200/-150

y = 8

Substitute y = 8 into the first equation

x + y = 42

x + 8 = 42

x = 42 - 8

x = 34

34 tickets were sold for 75 cents

8 tickets were sold for $1.25
