pizza parlor owner knows they sell 3 slices of cheese pizza out of 20 total slices sold. Predict how many slices of cheese pizza will be sold if the pizza parlor sells 5,680 total slices in a week.(1 point)
The proportion of cheese pizza slices sold to total slices sold is 3/20.
To predict how many slices of cheese pizza will be sold if the pizza parlor sells 5,680 total slices:
(3/20) = x/5680
Cross multiplying:
20x = 3 * 5680
20x = 17040
x = 17040 / 20
x = 852
Therefore, it is predicted that 852 slices of cheese pizza will be sold if the pizza parlor sells 5,680 total slices in a week.
