Allie and evelyn share a pizza and split the cost. they each pay $7.74. which of the following equations can be used to find the cost of the pizza?

2p = 7.74
7.74/2 = p
7.74/p = 2
p/2 = 7.74

p/2=7.74

This was a trick question. P is the variable that represents the total cost of the pizza. To normally find the total cost of pizza using the cost each of the two people spent, you would simply multiply 7.74*2=p. Since that wasn’t in the choices, you can divide by two on each side to get p/2=7.74.

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
