Question

If five boys can eat 16 silces of pizza then how many slices can 20 boys eat

Answer 1

Answer: 64

Step-by-step explanation: We have to find the unit rate of how 5 became 16. So we do 16 divided by 5 which is 3.2. So, after that we multiply 20 by 3.2 which is 64.

16/5=3.2

20 x 3.2 - 64

Answer 2

64

Explanation:

Let x be the rate boys can eat

5x = 16

we can multiply this equation by 4 to get

20x = 64

So 20 boys can eat 64 slice of pizza
