Question

The cafeteria bought 200 French bread pizzas for lunch next week. If they had bought the pizza last week while it was on sale, it would only have cost $ 2.00 per pizza. Now, 7 days later, the price is $ 3.78 per pizza. How much money could they have saved if they bought the pizza last week?

Answer 1

Answer:

$356

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, use this: (200 * 3.78) - (200 * 2)

(200 * 3.78) - (200 * 2)

200 * 3.78 is the same as 2 * 378, which is 756.

756 - (200 * 2)

200 * 2 is the same as 4 * 100, which is 400.

756 - 400

Subtract 400 from 756 to get 356.

356

If they brought the pizza last week, the school could have saved $356.
