Question

Michael orders pizzas from Pizza by Alfredo and from Alfredo's Pizza Cafe. The pizzas from Pizza by Alfredo costs $3 each, and the pizzas from Alfredo's Pizza Cafe costs $5 each. Michael spent $24 more on pizza from Alfredo's Pizza Cafe than he did at Pizza by Alfredo. If Michael spent $66 in total, how many pizzas did he buy from each place?

Answer 1

Answer:

no of pizzas bought from pizza by alfredo = 7

no of pizza s bought from alfredos pizza cafe = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be total cost of pizzas from pizza by alfredo.

x + x + 24 = 66

total price for all the pizzas = 66

2x= 66 - 24

x= 42/2 = 21

since one pizza is $3

no of pizzas bought from pizza by alfredo =  21/3 = 7

no of pizza s bought from alfredos pizza cafe = 21 +24 / 5 = 9
