The way they worded the question made it look a lot more difficult than it was

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?

South side of town
North side of town
Both sides of town
Neither side of town
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok, first calculate the number of people in the north side of town
OpenStudy (sebastiangonzagonza):
so 225 multiplied by 15??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ya
OpenStudy (sebastiangonzagonza):
3375

now take the number of pizza places and divide it by the number of people
OpenStudy (sebastiangonzagonza):
91.22
OpenStudy (anonymous):
other way around, 36/3375
OpenStudy (sebastiangonzagonza):
.01
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok, so we know that we don't need to add a pizza place in the north, now lets see about the south

find the number of people for the south and divide that by the number of pizza places
OpenStudy (sebastiangonzagonza):
oh so the south would need it since its 0.006?
OpenStudy (sebastiangonzagonza):
or would it round up to .01?
OpenStudy (sebastiangonzagonza):
so none of the sides of town would need it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no you wouldn't round it. the answer is south side of town.

okay. thanks i'll tag you if i need more help
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you can test it by adding one more pizza place in the calculation and it still won't be much closer to 0.01
