What is the fomula to figure out the reasoning to this question? "Kurt cut pizzas into wedges measuring 40 degrees. If each person eats one piece of pizza, how many people could he feed with two whole pizzas?

Each circle has 360 degrees.

Divide 36o by 40.

you mean 360 not 36o

Yes. 360

To figure out the reasoning behind this question, we need to understand a few concepts. First, we need to know that a circle can be divided into 360 degrees. In this case, Kurt's pizzas are cut into wedges measuring 40 degrees each.

To find out how many wedges are in a whole pizza, we divide the total degrees in a circle (360 degrees) by the number of degrees in each wedge (40 degrees):

360 degrees ÷ 40 degrees = 9 wedges

So, each whole pizza is divided into 9 wedges.

Now, to determine how many people Kurt could feed with two whole pizzas, we need to consider that each person will eat one piece of pizza. In this case, one piece means one wedge.

So, if there are 9 wedges in one whole pizza, two whole pizzas would have:

9 wedges/pizza × 2 pizzas = 18 wedges

Therefore, Kurt could feed 18 people with two whole pizzas, assuming each person eats one piece (one wedge) of pizza.
