Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the least common denominator (LCD) to all the denominators of the fractions present in the equation. These denominators are (writing them in their prime factor form to make our calculations easier):

$4=2^2\\3=3\\2=2$

Therefore, we need to include a factor of 3, and two factors of 2 ( $2^2$ ) in our least common denominator, so this LCD will be a perfectly divided by all three given denominators, therefore eliminating all fractions in the equation.

Our LCD is = $3*2^2=13*4=12$

Answer: 1,365 possible special pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first topping, there are 15 possibilities, for the second topping, there are 14 possibilities, for the third topping, there are 13 possibilities, and for the fourth topping, there are 12 possibilities. This is how you find the number of possible ways.

15 * 14 * 13 * 12 = 32,760

Now, you need to divide that by the number of toppings you are allowed to add each time you add a topping.

4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 24

32,760 / 24 = 1,365

There are 1,365 possible special pizzas
