You are ordering pizzas for a birthday party and getting them delivered to your house. you order 12 pepporoni pizzas, 8 cheese pizzas, and 4 hawaiian pizzas. there is a delivery fee of $5.50. if your total comes to $184.54, how much was each pizza? assume that every pizza was the same amount

First, subtract the delivery fee from the total fee:
184.54 - 5.50 = 179.04

Assuming the price of each pizza is equal, we have a total of 12 + 8 + 4 = 24 pizza

The price of each pizza = 179.04 ÷ 24 = $7.46

When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. if you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.
