2/3 of a pizza is more than half of the pizza.
3/6 = 1/2, so 3/6 of a pizza is exactly half of the pizza.
Given that two pizzas are of different sizes you need to calculate the areas of each pizza and compare them.
Assumming that the two pizzas are circular, you can calculate the area of each pizza from the formula of the area for a circle:
Area of a circle = π * (radius)^2.
Call r the radius of Jake's pizza and R the radius of Al's pizza. Then:
Area of Jake's pizza = π (r^2) and 2/3 of that is: 2π(r^2) / 3.
Area of Al's pizza = π (R^2) and 1/2 of that is π(R^2)/2
So, what you have to do is to use the radius of each pizza, calculate above formulaes and verify whether the results are the same or not.

People in building ---- x (men, women and children)
children --- y
men + women + children = x
(3/7)x + (5/8)(4/7)x + y = x
3x/7 + 5x/14 + y = x
times 14
6x + 5x + 14y = 14x
14y = 3x
y + 220 =x
sub into the other one
14y = 3(y+220)
11y = 660
y = 60
then 14(60) = 3x ---> x = 280
So we have 280 people in the building.
check: 3/7 of 280 are men = 120
leaving 160 women and children
5/8 of these ot 100 are women
so we have 120 men, 100 women and 60 children!
hope this is right! have a great. day
Answer:
D. b = r+z
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression b-r = z, we are to solve for b. To do this, we will add 'r' to both sides of the equation as shown;
b-r+r = z+r
Since -r+r = 0, substitute:
b+0 = z+r
b = z+r
Hence the resulting equation when r is added to both sides of the equation is b = z+r
Hence option D is correct
