Answer 1

Given :

Marco's World Famous Pizzeria has 6 pizza ovens.

Solution :

1) ∵ Cost of one pizza oven = $2700

  ∴ Cost of 6 pizza ovens = 2700 × 6

                                          = $16,200

He paid $16,200 for all of the ovens.

2) ∵ On Monday night each oven produces the number of slices of pizza = 304

 Each pizza has the number of slices = 8

∴ The total number of pizzas were baked = $\frac{304}{8}$

                                                                     = 38 Pizzas

Total 38 pizzas were baked on Monday night.

3) ∵ Each oven can bake one pizza in 12 minutes.

One oven can bake pizzas in 3 hours (180 minutes) = $\frac{180}{12}$ = 15 pizzas

∴ six ovens can bake pizzas in 3 hours (180 minutes) = 15 × 6

                                                                                        = 90 pizzas

In 3 hours all six oven can bake 90 pizzas.

4) An order comes in for 240 pizzas.

Since one oven is broken so there are 5 ovens can bake.

Each 5 ovens can bake the number of pizza = $\frac{240}{5}$ = 48 pizzas

Each working oven must bake 48 pizzas.

5) It takes staff members to clean all 6 ovens = 162 minutes

Each staff member works for = 18 minutes

The number of staff members work to clean all ovens = $\frac{162}{18}$

                                                                                          = 9 staff members

9 staff members work to clean all ovens.

1) Total cost was $16,200

2) 38 pizzas

3) 90 pizzas in 3 hours

4) 48 pizzas each oven

5) 9 staff members
