The Pretty Pizza Company wants to open a new pizza place either on the north side of town or the south side of town. They want to open the pizza place where the ratio of pizza places per person is currently less than 0.01. The population of 15 blocks of the north side of town is 225 people per block, but there are already 36 pizza places in the area. The population of 22 blocks of the south area is 275 people per block, and there are 37 pizza places in the area. Where, if anywhere, should the Pretty Pizza Company open a new pizza place?

A) South side of town B) North side of town C) Both sides of town D) Neither side of town

I just got on to check something, I don't actually have time to stay. Sorry. Ask @beccaboo333

OpenStudy (anonymous):

North 225 per block so 3375person therefore 36 pizza shop per person is 36/3375=.010962963 South 275 per block so 6050 person therefore with 37 pizzashop, 37/6050=.0061157025 so its (A) south

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well wouldnt you do 3375/36?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because if its asking how many people per shop, wouldnt you divide the people by the number of shops?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let' s see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because it says pizza shop to the person

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats why divide the pizza shop by the amount of people

OpenStudy (anonymous):

North Side of town: 15 blocks * 225 people South Side of Town: 22 blocks * 275 people

OpenStudy (anonymous):

North Side of Town: 3375 people South Side of Town: 6050 people

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@faisalalif1999 scroll up and you can see that i did that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats needed pizza places per person is 0.01

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so North Side of Town: 36/3375 = about 0.01 South Side of Town: 37/6050 = about 0.01

OpenStudy (anonymous):

North Side of town: 0.01066667 South Side of town: 0.0061157

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It said less than 0.01

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, I'd pick south side of town
