but less than 2/3 of a pizza. How many different quantities of pizza could Karen order?

Answer 1

We are given

Karen is hosting a pizza party for herself and 29 guests

so, total number of people =30

each person gets more than 1/5

Let's assume total number of pizzas as 'x'

`x=(1)/(5)*30`

`x=6`

2/3 of a pizza

so, we get

`x=(2)/(3)*30`

`x=20`

we are given

She wants to order enough pizzas so that each person gets more than 1/5

and

but less than 2/3rd of a pizza

so, we get

`6<x<20`

so, Karen could between order 6 to 20 pizzas...........Answer
