Answer:

<h3>5ths</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

  • Price of whole pizza (A) = 5 × 3 = $15
  • Price of whole pizza (B) = 4.50 × 5 = $22.50

They make 8 whole pizzas.

Therefore

  • Thirds (A) = 15 × 8 = $120
  • Fifths (B) = 22.50 × 8 = $180

They'll make more money if they slice it into fifths.

180 - 120 = $60

Because if they slice it into thirds, total profit will be $60 less
