Two teachers each buy pizzas for a party all of the pizzas are the same teacher a pizzas were cut into 6 equal slices teacher b pizzas were cut into 8 equal slices which teachers pizzas wete cut into larger slices use what you know about fractions to explain your answer

Pizzas teacher A were cut into larger slices

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Let

x-----> the total area of one pizza

we know that

Teacher A

Pizzas were cut into 6 equal slices

so

The area of each slice is

Teacher B

Pizzas were cut into 8 equal slices

so

The area of each slice is

step 2

The area of the slice teacher A multiply by 4/4

The area of the slice teacher B multiply by 3/3

step 3

Compare the fractions

therefore

Pizzas teacher A were cut into larger slices

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
