Question

You've been asked to order a pizza for a party.

Here's a formula for this scenario:
\[x=\frac{ yz }{ a}\]

x = number of people at the party
y = number of slices per pizza
z = number of pizzas
a = number of slices each person will eat

Rewrite the formula to solve for the number of pizzas you should order.

Answer 1

Okay first of all do you know what variables the number of pizzas you should order are?

Answer 2

Yeah, it would be the variable z.. Correct?

Answer 3

Yep.

Answer 4

Hey dude, sorry, I have to go now. Sorry dude.

Answer 5

Bus A and Bus B leave school on a field trip when a stopwatch reads zero. Bus A travels at a constant 50 km/h, and Bus B travels at a constant 75 km/h. How far are the two buses from school when the stopwatch reads 1.5 h?

Answer 8

Lol I love you Skiller. Honest I do xD But I have no idea how to solve any of these math things you mention me in lmao

Answer 9

88488, that was like speaking a foreign language to me. ._. and lol Amy ;P

Answer 10

:D Just letting you know that, hon. I don't want you to beat me up if i can't help O.o lol

Answer 11

@amistre64 Can you help? o_o

Answer 12

z is wrapped up in multiplication and division ... unwrap it

Answer 13

\[x=\frac{ yz }{ a}\]
\[\frac{a}{y}x=\frac{a}{y}\frac{ y~z }{ a}\]
\[\frac{a}{y}x=\frac{\cancel a}{y}\frac{ y~z }{\cancel a}\]
\[\frac{a}{y}x=\frac{\cancel a}{\cancel y}\frac{ \cancel y~z }{\cancel a}\]
\[\frac{a}{y}x=z\]

Answer 14

Thanks so much! :)!!! Great help @amistre64
