Answer:
15 slices
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In a pizza eating participant can eat 3 slices of pizza in 2 minutes
To find: How many slices of pizza will he eat in 10 minutes.
Solution: It is given that a participant can eat 3 slices of pizza in 2 minutes.
To find how many slices of pizza will he eat in 10 minutes, we first need to find the number of slices he can it in 1 minute.
So, we have 2 minutes[tex]=[/tex] 3 slices
1 minute[tex]=\frac{3}{2}[/tex] slices
Now, to find the number of slices the participant can eat in 10 minutes we need to multiply the number of slices he can eat in 1 minute by 10.
So, number of slices he can eat in 10 minutes[tex]=\frac{3}{2}\times10[/tex]
[tex]=3\times5[/tex]
[tex]=15[/tex] slices
Hence, the participant can eat 15 slices in 10 minutes.
