A pizza parlor owner knows they sell 3 slices of cheese pizza out of 20 total slices sold. Predict how any slices of cheese pizza will be sold if the pizza parlor sells 5,680 total slices in a week.(1 point)
Based on the ratio of 3 cheese slices to 20 total slices sold, we can calculate the number of cheese slices sold in a week by setting up a proportion:
3 cheese slices / 20 total slices = x cheese slices / 5,680 total slices
Cross multiplying, we get:
3 * 5,680 = 20 * x
17,640 = 20x
Divide by 20:
x = 882
Therefore, the pizza parlor will sell approximately 882 slices of cheese pizza in a week.
