14 pizzas.

First, add up the numbers of players on each team and the coachesto get the total number of people eating.
17 + 21 + 20 + 17 + 9 = 84

Then, you can divide 84 by 6 to see how many pizzas: 84/6 = 14

If you’re teacher wants you to set it up as a ratio, it’s 6/1 = 84/x

Then you cross-multiply:
6x = 84
Divide both sides by 6
x = 14

Answer:

(A) 40%

(B) 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of cars = 200

Cars in parking lot on Friday = 120

Total number of cars = Total cars on Friday + Total cars on Saturday.

⇒ 200 = 120 + Total cars on Saturday.

⇒ Total cars on Saturday = 200 - 120 = 80

So, 80 cars were in parking lot on Saturday.

(A)

Percentage of cars in parking lot on Friday is given as:

$=\frac{\textrm{Cars in parking lot on Friday}}{\textrm{Total cars parked}}\times 100\\\\=\frac{120}{200}\times 100\\\\=\frac{120}{2}=60\%$

Therefore, 60% of the cars were in the parking lot on Friday.

(B)

Now, since 60% of the cars were parked on Friday, the remaining percent will be on Saturday.

Therefore, percentage of cars in parking lot on Saturday = 100% - 60% = 40%. This can be verified with the same formula used in part (A).

$=\frac{\textrm{Cars in parking lot on Saturday}}{\textrm{Total cars parked}}\times 100\\\\=\frac{80}{200}\times 100\\\\=\frac{80}{2}=40\%$
