A receipt for homemade pizza states that it yields 2 pizzas with 298 calories per slice 8 slices in one pizza you instead decide to make 5 mini pizzas if you eat two mini pizzas how many calories did you consume

Sagot :

Answer:

1,907.2 calories.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that with a recipe and some given ingredients, you can make 2 pizzas, such that each pizza has 8 slices, then there are:

2*8 = 16 slices

And each slice has 298 calories, then the total amount of calories is:

16*298 cal = 4,768 cal.

Now, we know that you decide to make 5 mini pizzas instead (where we assume that you use the same ingredients that you would have used for the two pizzas) then the total amount of calories in the 5 mini pizzas is the same as the amount of calories in two normal pizzas, then:

in 5 mini pizzas we have 4,768 cal.

Then if each mini pizza has C calories, we have:

5*C = 4,768 cal.

we can solve this for C.

C = 4,768cal/5 = 953.6 cal

Then if you eat two of these, the total amount of calories you consume is twice that amount:

calories consumed = 2*953.6 cal = 1,907.2 cal.
