Question

Jason is throwing a pizza party.He has 4/18 pounds of cheese available and he needs 3/8 pounds of cheese to make a pizza. How many pizzas can he make?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Jason has 4/18 pounds of cheese available and he needs 3/8 pounds of cheese to make a pizza.

Let he can make x pizzas. It can be calculated by dividing 4/18 by 3/8 such that,

$x=\dfrac{4/18}{3/8}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{18}\times \dfrac{8}{3}\\\\=0.592$

or

x = 0.6

So, he can make 0.6 part of the pizza.
