My question is: Lisa is making a pizza. She uses 30 pieces of pepperoni for a pizza, twice as many pieces of ham, and 12 more pieces of sausage than pepperoni. If there are 6 slices of pizza, and everything was distributed evenly, how many pieces of meat altogether are on each slice? Your thoughts:
There are 30 * 2 = 60 pieces of ham put on the pizza. There are 30 + 12 = 42 pieces of sausage put on the pizza. There are 30 / 6 = 5 pieces of pepperoni on each pizza slice. There are 60 / 6 = 10 pieces of ham on each pizza slice. There are 42 / 6 = 7 pieces of sausage on each pizza slice. There are 5 + 10 + 7 = 22 pieces altogether on each slice of pizza. The final answer: 22.
