mrs. whimseys class is having a pizza party. If there are 16 students
To find out how many pizzas are needed for Mrs. Whimsey's class pizza party, we need to know how many slices each student will have and how many slices are in a pizza.
Let's assume each student will have 2 slices of pizza.
To calculate the total number of slices needed, we multiply the number of students by the number of slices per student:
16 students x 2 slices per student = 32 slices
Now, let's assume each pizza has 8 slices.
To find out how many pizzas are needed, we divide the total number of slices needed by the number of slices per pizza:
32 slices / 8 slices per pizza = 4 pizzas
Therefore, Mrs. Whimsey's class would need 4 pizzas for the pizza party, assuming each student has 2 slices and each pizza has 8 slices.
