Option B is correct

36 pizzas were topped with vegetables

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

As per the statement:

At a pizzeria, the ratio of pizzas topped with meat to pizzas topped with vegetables was 4:3 on Saturday.

The ratio of pizza topped with meat to pizzas topped with vegetables = 4 : 3

then;

the number of pizza topped with meat = 4x

and

the number pizza topped with vegetables  = 3x

It is also given that the pizzeria made a total of 84 pizzas that day.

Substitute the given values we get;

Combine like terms;

Divide both sides by 7 we get;

12 = x

The pizza were topped with vegetables = 3x = 3(12) = 36

therefore, 36 pizzas were topped with vegetables

The correct answer is option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of pizzas topped with meat to pizzas topped with vegetables was 4:3 on Saturday.

Let the pizza's topped with meat be 4x

Let the pizza's topped with vegetable be 3x

Total pizzeria made a Saturday = 84

4x + 3x = 84

7x = 84

x =

Pizza's topped with meat = 4x = 4 × 12 = 48

Pizza's topped with vegetable = 3x = 3 × 12 = 36

12 pizzas were topped with vegetables.
