Mandy invited 12 people to her birthday party. She ordered 4 large pizzas for everyone to eat. Each large pizza had 9 slices. If everyone ate the same number of pieces, how many did each person get?
Blank Space__________pieces
Type the correct answer.
To find out how many pieces each person got, we need to divide the total number of pieces by the number of people.
Total number of pieces = 4 pizzas * 9 slices per pizza = 36 pieces
Dividing 36 pieces by the number of people, each person got 36/12 = 3 pieces.
Therefore, each person got 3 pieces.
