Answer:
60 bags of cheese was used
Step-by-step explanation:
Papa Johns is baking a total of 72 pizzas Monday and Tuesday. Each pizza requires 1 2/3 bags of cheese. Monday he makes 1/2 of the total number of pizzas he needs.
1/2 of the total number of pizzas that he needs is : 1/2 of 72 pizzas
= 36 pizzas
The number of bags of pizza that he needs is :
1 pizza = 1 2/3 bags of pizza
36 pizzas = x
Cross Multiply
x = 36 × 1 2/3 bags of cheese
x = 36 × 5/3 bags of cheese
x = 12 × 5 bags of cheese
x = 60 bags of cheese
